Besides, you guys seem to be forgetting that Playchoice machines use inverted video signals.. and while I've seen a board to allow PC10 boards to run on standard monitors, I've never seen one that lets a standard res app run on the Sanyos..
Sorry to have to let you down hard.

I said I was out of my element here, but if it's inverted video, couldn't he just swap some of the wires when he connects the monitor to his arcade card, or is it more involved???

Now like i said i dont know much about this. But why cant i do the PC to monitor cable outlined on this site. i posted the link in an earlier reply. I have a friend that just solved most of the problem. He hooked me up with motherboard, processor 1.2 gig, heat sync, fan and hard drive for 120 bucks. Now the problem is i do not want to buy that 90 dollar card. I think that tiger is right as far as not needing the card, i'll find out what kind of video card i have to see if it will work or not. By the way, you guys kick ASS! at some point i hope i can help someone this much. The problem shifts now from what to buy to how to wire the monitor to my video card.

Dude. Just list your Nintendo Monitor, Dr. Mario PCB, Nintendo power supply, and wiring on ebay (separately). I promise you they will bring enough money to get you a 19" monitor.
PROBLEM SOLVED.

You have to build a bit of an inversion PCB. Not that difficult, but it isn't easy either.

How big of a HD is needed?
