According to the dip switch settings, DIP Switch bank 1 on the gameboard has switch # 8 that controls inverting the picture upside down or not.

Just a heads up, if you get a new gameboard and it starts playing upside down even though the dip switches are not set to flipped mode, someone might have changed something on the chassis of the monitor. I had a street fighter machine that did that.

It worked great but on games that didn't support flipping... i was too scared to try and change anything on the monitor.
