I have several games that have the annoying diagonal interference lines scrolling across the picture. Some are subtle, others are intolerable. Usually people say "cap kit" and "filter cap"... but I assure you replacing caps never does a damn thing for any game of mine with this problem.
There aren't a lot of posts on this subject that I can find, but it seems some people have eliminated this interference by disconnecting the earth ground from the monitor frame. I haven't tried this yet, but I don't really want to. Obviously these games came from the factory with the monitor frame grounded, so that means something has stopped working properly since then.
Do AC line filters go bad? Could this be the cause? I'd like to know before I order a bunch of new line filters... they aren't super cheap.
