so how easy is it going to be to convert this monitor back to original form with the wires as nasty as they are now..

Neil

Neilyboy:
would it be easier to just convert this to a jamma cabinet (basically buy new harness and new power supply or not since it may be original monitor which you say is inverted)

Neil

Kaytrim:
the 'video card' says Nintendo right on it, but the model number is covered by the cable.  Also we can't see any of the information on the stickers of the CRT tube.  Try and get some better pics tonight so the monitor experts can give you a hand.

Judging by the installed controls (joystick/buttons) and horizontal monitor mount, this cab has been converted from DK to Super Mario Bros Vs. before it was converted to Rastan....http://klov.com/game_detail.php?letter=&game_id=10371

If you want to convert back, you'll have to revert the monitor mounting to vertical and change the CP of course...

The bolts you see on the sides are indicating the horizontal monitor mounting set that was used for conversions (also for the Mario Bros. conversion). IF you ever remove this , let me know, I am looking for the mounts. I've got a Mario Bros cab that was half converted, but my monitor is still in vertical position..... !!!

For discharging the monitor, look in the monitor section and look in the FAQ there....it's all explained very clearly there.

That interface board may have been part of the Super Mario VS. conversion set. If you go back to DK, you'll have to remove it.

I definitely would go for a full restoration to DK if I were you :D.....
