Title: Help with identifying this chasis
Post by: thetered on April 06, 2011, 02:47:37 am

This is the monitor from a Die Hard cab I just bought, trying to figure out what i have to do to hook it up to my arcadeVGA but cant identify it, I went through a long list of pictures on one site and got nowhere.  I apologize for the bad pictures, but so far its as far as I have gotten for access to it.  It has a break away board for the vhold and stuff like that if that helps any.

Yours has original flyback (never been replaced).

Thanks, I love this forum!

But um, excuse my ignorance but is the origional flyback a good or bad thing, or just something you made mention of?

The original flyback is now a high failure item. It is known to develop hairline cracks and arc out high voltage thus damaging other parts.

Awesome!  Guess I gotta put one of those on my wish list now also.
