Ok everyone, here's the story-
I was playing my Centipede one night. My monitor had been doing a weird flashing every now and then leading up to the problem. Along with the flashing I'd see some quick blue lines down the left side of the monitor, then go back to normal. The night of the problem, it was just running when I heard a *POP* and the screen went black. I turned it off quickly. It still plays blind. Yesterday I did an entire new cap kit and replaced the Flyback with a new one. I put it back in the machine and it's still playing blind. I checked all the fuses on the power brick and they are fine, and also checked the fuse on the chassis and it's fine too. What's the next step? Change transistor "bottle caps" on chassis frame? Help!
