I know all of you are against converting your arcade monitors out for VGA, LCD and such. I can respect that. I however have a hard drivin" compact that I would like to change out, but I am a little lost.
I have purchased the CGA to VGA converter already. Here is the manual:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/...iTKeuG6tiiYGH1zM/edit?hl=en&authkey=CKjMucgM#
I bought this particular hard drivin from a guy last week for $40. It is in pretty rough shape, but I would like to get it going again before I start ripping into it to restore cabinet. I have everything hooked up as I think it should be and I can kind of see a little bit of the screen kind of. It looks very wacked out, then it will go to no signal on the monitor. It just goes back and forth like it kind of has a signal ans then looses it.
My real question I have is do these cards convert to vga and an acceptable range to be displayed on any lcd or crt? Or do they still use the prior range and I will need to find a monitor that will work correctly with it. The minutor I am currently using is an NEC Multisync.
Let me know of there is anymore information I can provide.
Thank you!
