krick:
You should take pictures before and after the board modifications to document them for other WG-D9200 owners.
Blacksmith:
I'll let you all know how it works out when I get the stuff.
Blacksmith:
Well, bad news folks.  Recieved the new revision board for my monitor and installed it.  Everything on my machine still works fine like before, but the light gun still does not work.  I installed it numerous times with the same results.  It seems like the monitor is picking up some kind of flash when I pull the trigger, but no shots register.  I will occaisonally here the sound of a reload, but thats it.  I have tried to calibrate the gun also, with no change.  One strange thing that I have found is that when I try to enable the light gun icon on the mamewah frontend the button depresses, but doesn't actually highlight like when you depress the mouse icon on the frontend to enable the trackball function.  (Hope that made sense)  I wish someone that knew what they were doing was standing here right now!  Seems like the only way that I'm going to get a gun working is if I get my hand gun out and shoot my machine!  HELP!!!

Have you tried to play the little cheap game that come on the Act-Labs CD.  If you see the curser move and can shoot the aliens then you are good.  When I wasn't sure if mine was working I tested it on that game and determined that the gun worked right but my mame settings were off. 

Enabeling the lightgun in mame.ini and setting player 1 button 1 to left mouse click worked for me.
