HaRuMaN:

I'm gonna stop by Frys on the way home from work tomorrow and get an AT power supply, thanks for the heads up.  Looks like they have one for $25, w00t!  I'll replace that and see what happens.

Monitor does have neck glow.  I haven't tried hooking up another video source to it to test it.  It is just standard VGA, correct?

Yep,  standard stuff.
I've used a bunch of different monitors for testing & currently use LCD touchscreens on both my machines.

HaRuMaN:

Replaced the power supply, and BAM!  Works great, monitor is clear, and the touchscreen is perfectly calibrated.   :droid :droid :droid

No sound, though.  Not bad for $50 and hour of my time.

BadMouth:

Sweet!   There is a volume control pot on the I/O board.  It's a little metal lever attached to two vertically mounted pots.  IIRC, it's in the bottom corner near where the speaker plugs in.  There is also a volume adjustment in the service menu.

I wouldn't be surprised if the speaker is blown though.  Mine was all crackly and had to be replaced. 
It's 8ohm, but I don't rember the size off the top of my head.  I have a spare and can post specs when I get home if you like.

HaRuMaN:

Cool, thanks, I'll look for the pots and try that first.

How do you get into the service menu?  I've only messed around with JAMMA type games before this.
