Does the resolution and refresh rate of the monitor match one of the supported ones listed in the Opti-Gun manual?

yeah it's a standard CGA monitor in there.

And you know, now that I think about it, for some reason, this monitor had issues tracking in the real Friction hardware. 

I wonder if it is just something with this Friction board and the monitor.  I never could figure it out at all.

And Friction ran just fine in my KI2 cabinet, which is the monitor I was initially getting feedback on.

And also now that I am thinking about it, I initially swapped monitors because I have a switcher in my Maximum Force, and the remote controls wouldn't allow for enough horizontal and vertical adjustments from the remote board, and I basically need to make adjustments after switching to any new game.

I'm going to try going back to my KI2 cabinet (which has a NeoTec monitor in it, the one that came with Maximum Force) and see if I can figure out how to get it working in MAME on there, and if I can get that to work, I can always swap monitors back. 

If I'm going to be running a PC in there with emulators, then I won't have to adjust H/V at all once I initially set it up.

(sorry started to ramble to myself lol)

So I got my usb2gun board yesterday.  It is the one with the JAMMA edge.

The first time I powered it on I did not see the device in Windows but I also noticed on the board there were no lights.   I was getting video though just fine from the VGA pass through.

I turned everything off and noticed there is a jumper that says if the board gets power from the PSU or JAMMA and it was set to JAMMA, and I was using PSU.  So I flipped those jumpers and saw red lights come on the usb2gun board so now i know it's getting power.

I fired it up again, and again, I'm not seeing anything in the device list in Windows.

Anyone know what the problem with this could be?
