I just joined this site and its great... Not really new to arcades so I don't know how I went this long without being a member here.
Hope you like my posts. Btw this was my third and most recent mame project. Each cabinet I built the quality improved drastically. I always was into Mortal Kombat, but when I saw yourmameman now know as yourmkarcadesoure on youtube video of the building of a mk3 cabinet I had to do it as well.

I wanted to get the videos out of the way.. they have been on youtube for a while anyway lol. The computer is this Dell OptiPlex GX280 Desktop PC - Intel Pentium 4 2.8GHz, 512MB DDR2, 40GB HDD, CD-ROM, Windows XP Pro (Off-Lease) $149.99 from tiger direct, I upgraded the ram to 1gig. I have the UI32 0.130 version of mame from march 2009. I used maximus arcade for the frontend, and movie previews from emumovies.com but the monitor was turning on and off evertime I would go into a game on maximus.. and I definitely don't want it burning out so I just use plain mame for now. I have a mk1 dedicated cabinet which I got all my measurements from so the mk3 cab I built is spot on except the front panel, and the width is one inch wider then a dedicated midway so it would be easier to install the monitor.
I INSTALLED A NEW CAP KIT AND FLYBACK IN THE MK1 WHICH SLOVED THE PROBLEM this is a old video.
