VGA Output on arcade PCBs?

[Stobe]

(possibly stupid question)

I've got a Midway Skins board, which essentially looks like a PC motherboard (uses hard drive also).  It has a PCI slot on it.  Is it possible to use a PCI video card and output the video for the game to a VGA monitor rather than the RGB on the jamma harness?

Thanks,

Is this the pcb you are asking about?   If so I do not think it is a standard PC.  Is there a card on your pcb like the picture?   If so what does it connect to?  I cannot see where the ribbon cable goes in the pic.  While some new PC mboards have jamma now 2007 (new game/gambling pc boards) back when this game was made I do not think there were jamma connectors on PC mbs.

System 16 has some just as crappy photos. Extreme closeup photos and they still couldn't get a decent shot of the daughter card?! The connector looks similar to an ethernet jack. Or maybe it's some kind of USB card since there's a place on the PCB right next to it but no USB components installed.

Yup, thats the PCB.  But mine doesn't have the daughtercard.   

tt has the IDE cable that plugs in right next to the (what looks like) PCI slot.  And on the far side of the board haa a riser that has 2 DB9 (serial?) and 1 DB25 (parallel?) connectors, as well as 2 RJ-45's.

the PCI card that goes in that spot is an ethernet card that was supposed to connect to the "Midway tournament network"...also that ribbon cable connects to the hard drive

If y'all need more pics of that pcb set, let me know...I have one
