In trying to get my mach32 video card to work. I have to change the gal for that. I don't have experience in burning a gal nor do I have the hardware to do so.
Is there anywhere where I can buy the correct gal for my mach32 to work with my nova vme card? Or is there anyone who can advise me what burner and gal to get to do it myself? I've seen very cheap ones but as said I have no experience in this at all.
Thanks in advance:)

Re: TT_mach gal
... what kind of Nova adapter is this? Post a picture. All of mine have the Lightning patches and the OGFA GAL, which is the GAL to use for all graphics cards.
Setting is Jumper = MSTE (even with a Atari TT) and the right Nova Driver for the ATI MACH32

A rather late response due to some unexpected circumstances but here is a picture of my nova card:frank.lukas wrote: Wed Feb 14, 2024 1:11 pm ... what kind of Nova adapter is this? Post a picture.

This is a original Nova Computer Insel VME2ISA Adapter. I think without the OGFA Patches so you can not use the OGFA GAL for it. So you have to use the original GAL for the MACH32 ...

Hi Frank,
Thanks for the information. Questions I have:
- how easy is it to make my own GAL?
- do you have your nova card still available that works with all graphics cards? It might also be a elegant solution as it will give my TT easy access to other graphics cards in case I am lucky enough to find them.
Thanks!
