Now for my very stupid newbie question.  I'm doing mame in my cab and ordered my jpac.  Can I get the pinouts for my monitor out and use soft 15khz or do i have to get a different video card to do this?  Really just trying to be cheap about it, cause I will be replacing the monitor for a tv monitor with s video in the near future.

protokatie:

Soft 15kHz should work for any "old" video system. Dunno about the Jpac, I dont think the Jpac will be of any difference. (IE Jpac is for interface). If you are worrying, get the ArcadeVGA board.

I'm trying to avoid buying the arcade vga card because I will be using a tv as a monitor eventually.  Just looking to get by until then.  Just didn't know if I could just use my regular monitor out on my motherboard or if I HAVE to get a serperate video card.

ChadTower:


Depends on what video card you're using now.  Tell us what it is and we can help you figure out if you can use it.

I don't have a seperate video card right now
