Hey everyone, I have a Flappy Birds 42" Redemption machine in my arcade and it seems possible the A/D control board went out?
Here is what happens: I boot it up - I can see the screen activate - and I see the Ubuntu load screen - then it goes black - a wave of color swipes over (sometimes) and then nothing but black (maybe a white activation screen if you know what I mean, not powered off, but not displaying... IF I hook up another LCD, just a regular computer LCD monitor, works as it should. Currently it's hooked up in the cabinet with DVI cable, the motherboard has VGA and DVI, so I connected a new VGA cable to PC and Monitor just to test and it did same thing. I have NOT hooked up a laptop to the Monitor, extended the screen, and and tried other resolutions yet. Seems to me it's having an issue switching resolutions. I can't imagine Flappy Birds is a high res game - BUT it's probably more than BIOS/Board initialization screen...
Thoughts or experiences with these? I was told the LCD was replaced not that long ag - so strange it already went out..
Thanks for reading!! I could insert pics if needed.
