I picked up a super clean gauntlet dark legacy the other day and it all works great, however the med res monitor looks wavy all the time. I have tried adjusting the power supply and it does nothing to help. Any ideas ? Cap Kit ? New Power Supply ?
Thanks

Get some pictures/video of the problem. Take some pictures of the chassis. We need something to go on here.
 
A D9410 here at work has that same problem. It's some kind of noise in the horizontal deflection, I'd guess a faulty cap or a cold solder trace. Could be a problem with the yoke too.
 
Yep, check the power supply.

We had a cart fury that had a really wavy picture, turned out it was AC ripple on the +5v line caused by bad filter capacitors in the power supply.
 
I had a ripple in my Gauntlet Legends monitor and it turned out to be the power supply.
 
Changed power supplies and it's still wavy. I'm going to bring the monitor to my guy and see what he says.
 
This would be a perfect time to have the little 7" monitors that were sold here not too long ago. Just hook that bad boy up and see if the problem is the monitor or not...
