Golden Tee 2005 Video Help!!
tommytrish:
Hello, all. I am new to this site and arcade games in general. i have a work buddy who helps me out. He used to work at an arcade. He is good at servicing machines but not necessarily fixing certain things. Long story short, I bought a Golden Tee cabinet that would not come on. I bought a Golden Tee 2005 complete setup from Arcade Adventures. When it came in we set it up and it came on but the screen was garbled. My friend had me send off the monitor chassis for repair. WHen it came back, the picture was better but still garbled. I can't even read the preboot lines and menu items. I had him take my board and vid card to his house and it fired up perfectly. I have attached a pic. Any help would be appreciated

Sorry, new to this forum. I will include the monitor and chassis model when I get home from work.
qrz:
the hsync frequency being fed to the monitor is 3 times higher than what it is set to process .
in layman's terms feeding a high res signal to a standard res monitor.
some older monitors have dual res capability ( manually switched )
newer units are multi sync

Assuming you have a low res monitor,
Have you checked the dip switches on the board to make sure it's set to output 15Khz
Make sure switch 1 is in the on position, switch 2 try the default first but then try it in the off position and see if that improves the image.
Dip switch 1 (OFF): Medium Resolution (DEFAULT)
Dip switch 1 (ON): Low Resolution
**Dip switch 2 (OFF): Low Resolution B Adjust
Dip switch 2 (ON): Low Resolution A (DEFAULT)
Dip switch 3 (ON): Always "ON" (DEFAULT)
Dip switch 4 (ON): Always "ON" (DEFAULT)
and just to check, you are feeding the monitor from the Jamma connector and not out of the VGA card.
Hope this helps

THANK You guys so much. For some reason the dip switch 1 was on and was jacking up the picture. You guys are awesome.
One more question, I have tried many adjustments (HOR Size, Hor Pos, Vert Size, etc...basically all of the controls) but the screen still sits about an inch or two from the left side. THe Hor Pos is all the way to the left and making it bigger horizontally only stretches it further out the right side. Any ideas?
Regardless, thanks for your help
