Title: HELP!!! ps2 setup for candy cab
Post by: richardp171 on July 16, 2005, 02:02:38 am

I am working on building a ps2 for my astro city cab.  If anyone has a hacked controller or 2, I would love to take it off your hands. I bought a few controllers and tried to do it myself but my soldering skills are still Pre-K.  as far as connecting it to the monitor. I tried to hack into the video cord but it was missing the blue wire? has sync, red, green, and black but no blue??  Tried to connect it to the jamma connection but did not work. Got a scrabbled screen.  I found a vga box for all consoles games at Fry's but the cost was $79.  Not willin to spend that much yet.  Already spent $9.99 for an extra video cord.  Any ideas and advice??  Anything would help.  I searched the BYOC for help but got bits and pieces of what works.

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

One other thing about Excellentcom.... Their website lists form of payment purely as Wire Transfer. They need to update their website as they now also accept Paypal.
