HOLY CRAP! (sorry Jesus) I think you might have found it!!! Bit pricey though. Hmmm, desisions desisions . . .

at first looks, it lookes like a goer. It would be easy to get this working using one of those. I might have to wait and see how generous santa is in my xmas cards this year (most of my rello's dont know what to buy me, so just give me cash).

As I have never had or worked with a true arcade monitor and a jamma harness, I dont know what im doing, unexplored territory for me. What I have is basically the entire "guts" from a gutted arcade cab, all except for the PCB.

I know that the controllers and buttons and what-not would be all interfaced through the Namco 5-in-1. Thats an easy hack. What im needing to know is how do I then power the monitor? I guess it would be through the harness.  I have the transformer (a almost brand new one), a big coil-thingy and a jamma harness with 8 buttons and two sticks still attached. I mainly bid on this cause I wanted the sticks, and the rest was a added extra. I got the lot for about $50 on Aussie ebay.

If anyone can provide a tute or a site that might be able to help, it would be most appreciated.

Thanks in advance;

LD

P.S.  Thanks for the link StephenH, its even located here in Australia! makes it soo much easer
