Arcade Legends 2 CRT not displaying properly

I still think you either have the settings incorrect, monitor needs adjustment, or a combination of both.

Take a picture of:
-back of the monitor chassis
-the monitor plug with the signal wires
-the monitor controller board (in your coin door)
I got this for free from FB market, the previous owners said the monitor started bugging out and eventually stopped working. Been reading the forum and trying everything and jumped on this thread because buddy seems to be having similar issues as mine. The only difference that I see is that the usblinx pcb doesnt have any lights turning on.

Sooooo, I started playing around again with the parallel port settings. It was set to disabled but for some reason it was still sending VGA signal to the CGA CRT. I enabled it and re-disabled it and did a few reboots. All the sudden it decided to start working! Really wish I knew what actually fixed it in the end as I know the parallel port was disabled but not complaining!!

Thanks to everyone to getting me to the right things to look at!!!
Glad you got it working!!! Hopefully this works for me 🤞
 
I turned it back on to get some photos of the video test and it was MUCH better. Maybe it needed to warm up after long time of no use. There is still one spot that is slightly off but it already looks a little better. Hope to play it alot the next few days so we'll see if it completely resolves.
