Title: Running GroovyUME on billabs bl25c90t 25" monitor - newbie help please
Post by: crispux3 on November 07, 2014, 02:16:53 pm

Hello,

I am currently running GroovyUME and setting up my software, but need help on how to actually hook up and power an arcade monitor that I just got a couple of days ago. I understand that this is the groovymame forum, so I'll just point you to my post in the monitor/video forum. That post is here: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,142201.0.html (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,142201.0.html)

I wanted to ask here though and ask that you take a look at the thread. As groovyUME is best used on a CRT monitor, I've no doubt that I can receive help from the people who use it on their own CRT monitors.

Currently, I'm running GroovyUME on a Sony PVM monitor with RGB connections.

Basically, what I'm wanting to know is how to power the arcade monitor when it didn't come with a power cord, and I don't think I can hook it up to my PC power supply because the molex connectors are different.

Thanks for all your help and taking time to look at my thread in the monitor/video forum. I've attache pictures in that post.

I just wanted to say that I've gotten the monitor to work. It either didn't like the VGA cable it was shipped with, or had a faulty cable. Anyway, after a new DVI-VGA adapter and VGA cable, the monitor receives a signal and seems to work fine. I've updated the above referenced post which is where I'll post some more info at if anyone is interested.
