Hi everybody,

Just curious, I was thinking of doing some ROM swap conversion experiments on old black & white Exidy games, and I was wondering if it's possible to connect them to standard RGB monitors?

In particular I want to see if it's possible to convert a more common Crash! board into something rarer like Side Track, Rip Cord or Kreepy Krawlers and I don't want to waste money chasing down a B&W monitor if it's not going to work. This is probably a really dumb question but I haven't had the time to thoroughly poke around the schematics yet, but I thought I'd see if anybody knew off the tops of their heads.

If you pull the video and sync off before they're combined, yes.

I do that on the bench all the time.

...although it'll prob work fine with the existing color adapter board anyway.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot.
