Monitor issues
« on: October 25, 2004, 07:26:37 am »
I bought a MK2 cab this weekend that has a 25 inch monitor in it.  The game shows 501 plays on it.  My problem with the monitor is that there are 5-6 white verticle lines in the middle of the screen and the screen keeps rolling and finally the top 2-3 inches of the montior is black so this makes the top of the picture scrunched up.  I tried adjusting the verticle hold and position but I am stumped.  Any thoughts?

I think the "Jail Bars" are fixed by a cap kit.  Might want to wait for MonitorGuru or KenLayton to reply before taking my word though.  You'll also have better luck with an answer when the mods move this to the monitor/video forum.

I posted it in there also, I did not know if I might get better exposure in both.  Ken replied to me on a different web site (klov) but my Dig camera had a dead battery last night and I could not get a pic.  I will have to try again this eve.
