Hmmm, well it sounds quite ominous but not to worry.  It could be that power is not correct.  Test this with the use of the schematic files that you have.  Make sure you have all the corrent voltages.  Check to see if the ICs are seated well and have no broken legs.  Many problems on these old boards are caused by dirty contacts or brittle or broken legs on ICs.   I would suggest carefully removing all seated (meaning chips that are not hard soldered to the board) and carefully cleaning them.  If after this you still have a problem, you could try contacting arcadechips.com for ram chips and proms that you need.  I would replace each of these that are bad as the cost is not really very high.  I hope that this helps you. 

CheffoJeffo:
Has ArcadeChips worked out their issues ?

To the OP: Try posting in the Arcade Miscellaneous section (and do the stuff that Jigenjuke said).

well some how it took me this long to find out that the power supply is spliced in before the power switch every thing have have been doing to it like flipping the switch was when it was still on

Axe:
GAH!!!!!

FIX POWER NOW :o

Having worked on tube amps, which are LESS power than monitors.... A lucky shock willl send you back in your seat and turn your arm purple and splotchy. (been there, 650vdc)  and an UNLUCKY one will kill your ass dead, leaving us to keep emailing you for progress pics.

The board shouldn't hurt you, the power supply might "wake you up" as an electrician i know used to always say, but before you go poking around anywhere near that monitor, Discharge Discharge DISCHARGE!!!!

Sorry for excessive drama, but as i said, expereince with tube amps, and the stories of those not so lucky has tainted my curiosity.
