Before buying a Wells-Gardner monitor, read about their problems
Spaced Ace:
Thanks Ummon. Im a little lost when it comes to monitors, all the comments help....

I just bought an old cab with a WG 33K3001 VGA monitor in it (from 1998). It is a nice bright, beautiful display. The only problem is that it's slightly rotated (need to find the adjustment for this, although it doesn't bother me enough to move the beast).
Also, I have to set the video card to 61Hz, which helps with MAME skipping anyway. At 59.xxx or whatever Windows XP calls 60Hz, it won't sync properly when it warms up.

Parts for the D9400 are also hard to get. I am looking for some S1D2500 ans S1D2147 I2C chips from Samsung which are used on the D9400 monitor to repair a couple of monitors I currently have in my shop.
Any suggestions where I might find them at a reasonable price.
Thanks
Bill

A lot of times when you go with the original manufacturer they rape you on price. Judging by his post he's looking for a better price.
