I have been contemplating pulling my none working monitor and replacing it with an LCD in my 60-1 game. The problem I am having is that the whole screen is light green with vertical lines scrolling left to right on it and the bottom of the screen seems to be someone collapsed. I tried to get a good picture, but with the scrolling lines it made it difficult. No matter what I do I can't seem to get a good picture at all. The monitor was working - at least I could get somewhat of a picture even though the colors were not great- before I re-did the cabinet. I don't know if laying the cabinet on its back and sides during my pre-painting prep work caused something to break or come loose I don't know. The game has sound and can be played blind. I also took a reading at my power supply and it was at 5.1v. I finally decided to hook up an old LCD monitor that I had laying around, switch the dip switch on the board and see what happens. Well, I got a good picture and could play the game with no problem. I don't know if a cap kit will solve the problem or if I need a new tube. I have an old RCA XL100 TV that I could try taking the tube out of to see if that will work, but I have never did a cap kit or tube swap before. This just seems like a lot of work to do when I could just buy a used 19" or 20" LCD monitor and not have to go through all the trouble. Anybody have some things I could check before totally giving up on this monitor?
Thanks
