| SirPoonga:
There is a vector monitor mailing list. I currently can;t tell you what it is as I just cleaned my inox. When I get a message from it I'll give you the details. my uncle has the same problem. The machine works but thevector monitor is not showing picture. Here's two links that will help you out. http://www.ionpool.net/arcade/asteroidtech/asteroidsrepair.html http://www.gamearchive.com/Video_Games/Manufacturers/Atari/monitor.html Oh, a freshly restored asteroids will go for about $400 - $500 as Mr Arcade just sold one on ebay not to long ago. Here's the mailing list. http://www.arlo.net/vectorlist/ |

So? What's the scoop? Are you blowing up little rocks yet? --Chris |

No not yet :( Over the past couple of weeks I've been picking Bob Roberts's brain to figure out whats wrong. So far I've replaced a couple of blown fuses and the big blue capasitor on the power supply. Now when I turn it on at least the back of the picture tube is glowing and the red start buttons are flashing but no picture or sound yet. Bob still thinks its a power problem rather then a monitor problem so I'm gonna have to study the owners manual some more and breakout the multimeter and do some more testing. I'm not given up though ! ;D |
