Did you set your CRT to VGA mode? Some monitors can not auto switch between resolutions, so check to see if your CRT has a dip switch. Also, the bottom VGA port will work on a standard resolution display. I've tested a Taito Type X on my Astrocity. Make sure you only plug the vga cable into the VGA port only, to make it boot up in standard resolution. At least that's what I noticed from my experience.

Hello, thanks for your contribution
I already did what you told me but when I connect it directly to the VGA I don't get an image either on the CRT or on the monitor to get an image I have to connect it to the DVI with a pad then it starts if it gives me an image on the VGA

Update I no longer see errors but now select Kof 98 it starts with errors but it starts the game directly

Question after starting a game, how do I return to the main Multi menu?

by pushish the black button from backside of TTX1 unit you will reset the system and you will return in the Multi menu screen ☝🏻 or classical , power off the unit and power on ✌🏻

@snake390 , have you got two accounts ? :)

I don't really understand what is going on here. Please take a video of the system starting so I can see what is going on.

With the new version of ttxshell your background image should be red, but I do not see that in your pictures.
 
Hello good morning
If I hadn't realized, I was logging in with another browser. Sorry, I already closed the other account in the afternoon. I'll send a video to show you.

Hello

I add video of operation

I explain a little, the emulator loads well without com2 errors but in the loading process some errors appear but in the end it starts when trying to load some game, anyone loads only the kof98, I try to restart it from the back button as they explain but now it loads directly Shouldn't kof 98 return to the menu?

Additionally, if you see the video I have to change the port on the video card because if I leave it in the DVI port the image is lost. What I do is transfer it to the VGA port so that it gives me an image

Thanks for your comments

Hi, I watched your video and I am a bit confused. It looks like something is wrong with your graphics card ?

Can you try to start the game "gpu_test" so we can see what kind of graphics adapter you have ?

I added my video configuration but enabled ttxshell_4.7.2 since it did not open with ttxshell_4.8.4

@snake390 thank you for the GPU information, you have the correct GPU.

What kind of SATA disk are you using ?

To be honest I do not understand what is going on here.

When you use ttxshell 4.8.4 the menu does not appear or you cannot navigate the menu ?

Because in your video the menu appears with 4.8.4 ....

hello

What happens is that when I go to ttxshell 4.8.4, sometimes the menu opens but it only runs kof 98, even if I choose any other game to show you the image of the gpu, I have to go back to ttxshell_4.7.2

I have a 2.5 128 Xue s500 series SSD

Both of those should work with the TTXMulti.

Please try the SEGA one to rule out any issues with the Capcom.

When you say that 4.7.2 works, it means you are using a PS2 keyboard to remove the error message ?

If you use 4.8.4 does the selection menu appear ?

*Yeah

If you use 4.8.4 does the selection menu appear?

*If the problem appears it is that when selecting any game only kof 98 is executed, for that reason I went back to 4.7.2 to show you the
gpu image
 
Thanks for the info.

Tell me, if you use 4.8.4 does the game selection menu appear correctly ?

If it appears, can you go up and down ?
