Transformer interference in cocktail games?

<< < (3/6) > >>

SirPeale:
You sure your screen control isn't up too high?  Try turning it down a smidge.

Which wires should i wrap??  Just every wire I see, or are there certain ones?  Also, do i need to be careful about what i touch with the tinfoil....i unplug the machine, but i heard the monitor still holds a charge...will i get shocked if i touch the wrong thing with the tinfoil...can i cause damage if i turn the machine back on and the foil is touching something wrong, like the transformer or monitor??

Which screen control should i adjust....like the brightness or the color??  There are a couple of dials under my game, most just make the screen brighter or fuzzier or more reddish...but don't seem to affect the lines any.

If you don't know what things to touch and not touch on your monitor, you should get your hands the hell out of a cocktail cabinet.  It's too cramped in there to not know what the dangerous parts are.

Chad's right.  But...I'm talking the coarse SCREEN adjustment.  Should be a pot on your flyback.

And half a foot from 20000 volts of angry electricity.
