Is my power supply okay? I don't think so...

I am trying to install Mk1-MK4 in my MK4 dedicated via switcher. MK3 and MK4 work fine, I am having issues with MK1 and MK2 and I believe it's my power supply.

From the jamma connector:

+5 reads 5.05
-5 reads -4.04
+12 reads 10.10

It seems like my -5 and +12 are off. My MK2 is going right to game over when you press start(I ran it as the only board in the box for 3 weeks while waiting for the switcher so I think it's good) and on MK1 you coin in, select a character, and as the match is starting your character will act like he won the match and it will saw "draw". I'm thinking that MK3 and MK4 boards are less susceptible to the power differences. Are my readings okay or not? Anyone else have any insight?

I closely inspected the boards, they seem okay and they are passing rom checks as well. Thanks.
 
I swapped the power supply from my Golden Tee and the values were better but the boards are still freaking, not good. I'm thinking I might have blown my MK2 messing with power, my MK1 never worked, it was a converted NBA Jam board...
