I just acquired a Dance Dance Revolution Extreme. I don't know very much about these machines. This appears to be the Japanese version, and has Japanese artists, and certain messages are in Japanese only. Is there a way to make this machine more english friendly? Is there a U.S. version of...

I just figured it out...that its actually the V-Hold that I needed to adjust....Now its looking straight as an arrow.

Ok. I did the cap kit, and as expected, it did not fix the curl problem. So, I followed the instructions mentioned earlier to fix the curl on G07 monitors. Everything looked exactly as shown in those instructions. But, when I got finished, the curl was still there and worse than before. The...

This is the one I just got from Bob Roberts for my Pac-man...It fixed my hum bar problem. Not sure if its the same for Ms. Pac, but I guess it probably is. http://www.therealbobroberts.net/hum.html

That sounds like it could be the case with mine. I will install the cap kit and see if that makes any difference. Hopefully my cap kit will come with the extra cap as well. I ordered it from Bob Roberts.

I've got a Super Off Road Track Pack 3 player that I'm looking to replace the board set in. Either the original or Track Pack boards would be fine. Also, I would consider buying a non-working board as well.

Well, I'm up for a good challenge. I've got 3 or 4 other cap kits to do, so I will do them first. I just got started in this hobby, but I really want to learn. So, if I screw up on one monitor then I'll just chalk it up to the cost of learning. But hopefully things will go smoothly.

I also have a standard upright Pacman that has the 4600 in it. I ordered a cap kit for it too. I've never done a cap kit before, so this will be new to me.

Yea, it has a GO7-FBO. I ordered the cap kit from Bob Roberts, so we will see what happens. Thanks.

Great! I was hoping it would be something simple (and cheap). Thanks.

I just acquired this pacman cabaret a few days ago. On the right side of the screen the image kind of curves upward (see pic). Any ideas what causes this or how to fix? Thanks.

I think the problem was there were too many to choose from: -- But the problem I worry with now is my wood -- I need to trim my new wood just a little so it will fit. -- The wood doesn't look that stong to me -- I used Oak 6" Which my other wood was 6". -- Should I be worried about it...

I have the monitor and chassis out of a space invaders and on a table for testing. I was thinking when I get ready to re-install it, I would first discharge it and was planning to use the house ground... So, if the monitor is out of the cabinet, what's the best ground to discharge too? still...

Ok, I ordered from unicornelectronics, so we'll see how that goes. Also, I just found out that Bob Roberts has them for $1.00

Yea, it seemed pretty steep to me too...but, I was willing to pay it as a last resort. Thanks for the link Mark. I will have to see if I can come up with some items to meet the $20 min...but I would rather do that than pay $12 shipped for one. Edit: whoops..I missed the Jameco link..I might...
