Horizontal position on arcade monitor is way off
« on: March 27, 2008, 06:15:10 pm »
I have an off brand arcade monitor (ATI).  The picture is shifted to the right and there is not enough adjustment in the horizontal position pot to get it centered.  Is there anything else I can do?  Replace a capacitor with one of a different value?  Or possibly adjust the yoke?

Thanks

the the whole image or just part of it?

if it is just part of it you may have a pin and trap pot.

I should have mentioned that I tried the horiz. hold.    Didn't help.

The make is ATI.  I'll get the model # and post it.
