WG K7000 Problems
« on: February 09, 2006, 11:46:47 pm »
I recently capped my first monitor ( WOO WOO! ) which is used in a Mortal Kombat conversion.

After hooking up the chassis, I have a few small problems:

1. The Picture is upside down. Not sure if this is an adjustment or somekind of hardware problem ( cable in wrong? )

2. The Picture isnt long enough Vertically....I need it too stretch both up and down. Horizontal Width is perfect.

I've already tried adjusting numerous settings.

Aside from those problems, I can adjust the rest.

Any help with these would be great!

Thanks,      - Joe

Is this the monitor that was originally in this machine? Was the picture the proper orientation before you worked on it?

See Bob Roberts pages on yoke flipping if you still have problems.

Yes, it is the original Monitor that used to house a Double Dragon. The monitor was in the right orientation before I worked on it but then again...."I" worked on it lol.

Would it be possible to reverse Green/Yellow and Red/Blue? You know when you disconnect a cable and it twist a certain way for being in the same position for so long? ( I read an article on this )

Well, my color cables kind of did that but I looked at the boards and decided to play it safe thinking they mave have just been tangled.


Any thoughts on the Vertical stretch I need?

Have you adjusted V. size adjustment to max?

The reason it may be upside down now is either
1. The Double Dragon PCB had the screen inversed with a dip setting or
2.  You accidentally put your yoke cables in backwards.

either way a yoke flip fix isnt too hard.
