Hi everyone. New to the forums and this scene. I really don't know anything about the technical aspect so please bare with me.

I just picked up a Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition cabinet. It has a 25 inch monitor in it, and looks really good. The only issues I've noticed is it doesn't seem to be adjusted correctly. At the very top of the screen it cuts of some of the words and pictures. It's not really noticeable when playing the game, but in the intro and stuff you can tell. How do i get the correct size ratio fixed?

Also, I'm not sure if it's still doing this, but the first day I put it in, the screen was jolting up and down every so often. Is this damaged, or something I can fix? I didn't notice it when i tested it before loading onto the truck, but when i first hooked it up, it was there. I played it twice since and really didn't notice it, but to be honest was concentrating on the controls and stuff (played really really late for a short time, running on little sleep). I'll check it out again tonight, just wanted to get some advice from the pros on here.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!
 
There should be a remote board, usually under the control panel, that can be used to adjust the picture size. The vertical position and vertical size pots are the ones you are looking to adjust.

The picture movement could be anything from cold solder joints to failing components. What type of monitor is it (compare what you have to these: http://www.therealbobroberts.net/monitor.html)?
