2 monitors same bad image

Pages: (1/2) > >>

bowza:

is it possible , that either the game board or the wireing loom could cause a poor smuged effect image.

I saw the second monitor working before it was removed from the doner cab and the image was nice and crisp.

Thanks

Dave

Ken Layton:

So this is a two monitor cabinet like a Playchoice 10?

What is the machine and what brand/model are the monitors in question? Were they both installed at the same time or one at a time?

bowza:

Ken sorry, no I replaced the monitor due to the eht blowing, when I re capped it for this fault.

I have taken a working monitor, from another cabinet, and fitted it to mine,

I still get a smudgeing of words and see diaganol Lines (raster lines?) down the screen

could it be the loom, psu or something else.

I will try to take a picture later today.

Thanks

Dave

Any advice please.

Hmmm....looks like you may have a gameboard problem with either a bad character rom/prom chip or video ram chip. If the same problem exists with two different monitors then you would have a gameboard problem. It does not appear to be power supply or wiring problems.
