Issues with JVL Retro Machines

Yeah just connect the VGA cable to another pc and power the machine on. If its the monitor you should see those same lines on the monitor. If not, then you need a new jp30 motherboard that can be found on ebay in the $150 price range last time i checked. As far as the monitor, that might be a bit more harder to find.

So I started tearing down the machine to see what treats could be in store for me inside.  Attached are picos the motherboard and supply.  Definitely some black "goo? in certain areas of the motherboard and for sure caked onto the fans.  Then on teh power supply, I was not sure if it was supposed to look like that or if that was going out?  Gotta see what I am going to do here and if worth me fixing or try to part out???

good ol' smokers "dust".

essentially paste made of nicotine,tar,dirt.

formula 409 will take care of it.

as for your monitor LCD, best to swap out the panel as it's probably cracked. you might be able to find something that will work. i have a pile of old 15/17/19" lcd computer monitors i keep around for occasions like this. peel the panel out of them and swap them.

Hello, I am brand new to this forum. I just recently picked up a JVL Retro that had Itouch 11 in it and when turned on it be booting and than gave red screen with error. Reading some things in this forum I found a 9 on eBay that says working and so I purchased it and wanted to start there. I received it and installed in my Retro and at boot up you have to factory reset and than it plays fine. Stay on for hours. Shut off and turn on it boots up and wants to factory reset every time. I changed the battery and still doing the same thing. I don’t know what to do for it not to want to be factory reset at boot up every time. Attached is a quick pic of the screen it gives me every time. Any help be very much appreciated!

Looks like the install usb is still in the game.
