I am having a problem trying to troubleshoot my defender machine. As soon as i can find my missing camera memory stick, i'll supply pictures of the exact problem, but for now i'll have to describe the best i can. The game itself works fine, but the top 1/4th of the screen (horizontally) is scrunched down to a single line. So there is just black empty space at the top 1/4 of the screen, while the bottom is fine.
My first thought was a monitor problem, so i tried adjusting the various pots on the back of the monitor, vhold, hhold, vsync, hsync, etc... with no change in the problem. In fact, when i move the horizontal image up, more of the game screen gets scrunched.
Next, i hooked up a seperate arcade monitor to the defender boards, and it's the exact same problem.
I then tried measuring the voltages of the defender boardset following the schematics, and all voltages are ok. There was only 1 discrepency i'm not sure if it is a problem, but i also measured the voltages on the bank of the 5 fuses on the power supply. The top 2 fuses which are supposed to be around +5V are now only reading +.25V and the other 3 fuses are around where they are supposed to be. This was the really only thing i could find, and visually the 2 fuses look fine (i.e. not blown).
As far as the built in diagnostic tests, everything passes. The 4 LEDs on the defender board all blink when game is first turned on, indicated ram ok. The built-in game diagnostics that display on the monitor all pass which also indicated the same. I ran it through all the tests and it indicated no errors.
I've run out of ideas at this point and i've tried searching here and the RGVAC for any ideas with no luck. So if anyone here has any clue, please let me know

Thanks
