 soldered two wires to the Tv pcb board on and off button to a external button on the top side of the Cab. I did the same for the Dell Pc it did not have the regular wires for the mothere board that othe pc have this one dell had s pcb board with a similar in and off switch that had to be silderrd as well. Had to have two separate on and off buttons due to the fact for some reson when I link the wires to one individual button the tv keeps going from channel 3 to video randomly on it's own at first I tough someone was messing with me with the remote but then I ulinked the pc and tv and the problem went away.

Got it programed with hypespin and instantshell to only function as a dedicated MAME CAB. The only issue I have after I shelled the PC while my intro video to Hyperspin a found new hardware wizard pops up for the Ipac 2 and I have to select enter 3 times if i select cancel instead of continue my Ipac wont function. But that's no problem I will just continue to select continue with the enter button that was installed on the CP.

Here is the ghetto lighting set up I went with the aluminum foil paper for the back and top to help project the lighting.

I like the layout, kind of bulky and different.  Very functional to boot IMO.  Black is always a great color for a cab as it hides so many imperfections.  Good re-work man!
