if its vga only then no way to play your board...unless you get real cga/ega arcade monitor with r/g/b/sync/ground wires coming out of the monitor.vga wont display your jamma pcb.

I can help with the Mortal Kombat cabinet wires for Mortal Kombat 1

White - Sync
Red - Video Red
Green - Video Green
Brown - Video Blue
Shield(Black) - Ground

Snaaake is right on.

These are standard arcade monitor signals so won't work with your Eygo if it is a vga monitor. Perhaps you could provide a model number or some other info on the Eygo.

If you Eygo is a vga monitor you could probably build a MAME machine by adding a PC and Jpac and emulate MK1.

I don't know what it is called, I just know it is expensive, but there is a video converter where you can hook up RGB and output VGA.

Any upscanner that takes in purge RGB is going to be professional quality (and usually around $500).  But most gamers import the X-RGB2 (or new X-RGB2 Plus) from Japan.  These are professional quality up scanners that use a 21 pin japanese scart input (RGB) and can output from 640x480 to 1024x768...all at a consumer price of $250 (at http://www.dcslinks.com/pc/mc_xrgb2plus.htm).  The older X-RGB2 comes on ebay every now and then from $100 to $200.

I contacted
http://www.weiya.com.tw/converter/converter.htm
via email and it looks like there more than willing to deal
direct. $60 dollars for the converter, I just wonder how
much the shipping will cost. I would like to use this with
a 19" eygo I have and my track and field that has a broken
monitor in it.
This is the reply they sent me
