Picture of one of the bad boards? Is the video onboard, or is there an external video card? If onboard, is there at least a agp or pcie slot?

Meaning someone would need a machine to test repairs. Its not going to be easy to find someone able to do that.

well. i just want the video fixed, to test that all the board needs is 12v,5v and ground on the side and the boardand it  turns on, hook a vga monitor and it should give video, no need for the imputs outputs on the jamma alike entrance of the board.

Nevermind, ima start using mame for this, computers are about the same price and they last longer, im not using this for profit so i guess its ok, plus i do own the hardware. Thanks anyway man, im going to send this boards over to guru so he can dump them. it might take a wild since postage its to expensive.
