Donkey Kong Monitor Problem - Colors Misaligned
« on: June 15, 2014, 11:48:04 am »
I recently installed a cap kit, and now the screen is filled, but the colors are still misaligned. The colors have been misaligned since before the cap kit, and I have tried all the monitor adjustments, including the convergence rings. I asked about my problem in more detail and with pictures on Donkey Kong Forum and they believe that it is a board issue, but I just wanted a second opinion before I purchased all new PROMs. Does anyone know what is causing the colors to be off? Thanks!

Board issue. You do have some color convergence issues on the monitor but the board isn't drawing everything right atm.


good day.

Does any of this look similar to your issue?

None of the issues in that link match what is going on with my machine. Do you think VR1/VR2 adjustments on the board would fix the problem, or is it one of the proms?
