  • Join Arcadeotaku and post in the Monitor Tech Section and you'll get your answer in a jiffy

  • Thanks for the advice man. I sent in the monitor PCB 2 days ago and the arcade repair company said that they could repair it but it would take 4 days and around $150. It think it's too much but I don't have the resources or parts here so I passed it off to them. Hopefully they can get it back up and running and I can play my games again.

  • There's a user on youtube by the name of yourmameman, he knows a lot about this kind of thing, he helped me fix my Die Hard machine's monitor. Send him a message, he's really nice. I personally think it may just be your caps.

  • Yeah, he's great. I've asked him for a lot of help and he's awesome. If you have an arcade machine and you are not subscribed to his channel, you should do it without hesitation.

  • trash it !!!!!

  • @lukemorse1 150$.........

    man thats like paying half $ of a decent lcd monitor

    don't bug with those old dinausaurs they will ALWAYS I MEAN ALWAYS BREAK

    they are passed ,

    Yes it's classic , yes it's the original arcade feel , okay fine but remember back in the days a game was costing 5000$ alone....

    Id say don't pay 150$ to get a pcb repaired , 50$ would be ok.... even then

  • i have exactly the same problem,it looks ok when i reduce the image width en height but it's way too small then

    have you been able to fix it?

  • @lukemorse1 so did u ever get this fixed? 

  • As erlendse said, definitely a problem in the vertical sync, making it kind of out of sync and weird. Usual symptoms are dead scanlines or "stretched" picture. Capacitor problem, most likely.

  • Looks like a problem around the vertical amplifier, you may be able to follow the wires from the yoke to it, it's 2 pair of wires from the yoke and you are looking for the one that doesn't connect to the high voltage transformer.

  • that sucks luke

  • Bummer!
