sohchx - you will have this problem a lot with your taste in games. Paperboy, 720, and Marble Madness also use med res.

I thought about buying an APB a few days ago. As soon as he said really dim monitor, I didn't want to mess with it.

Marble Madness is standard rez -

System 1 - standard
System 2 - medium (APB, Paperboy, Sprints, 720, Hard Drivin')

I'm pretty sure Marble Madness is NOT a medium resolution game.

Championship Sprint and Super Sprint are though.

Marble Madness (as stated above) is a System 1 game. System 1 uses a standard resolution monitor.

Yeah, you are right, I was mistaking it for System 2.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaat!!!??? Very nice!! Where can I get the The 24khz to 31khz converter from, and what is the size of that PC monitor that you used?

 

[jcterzin]

yes, im very interested to know where you got that converter. it just works with any pc monitor?

Not sure if this is the same manufacturer: ebay link

That's the same one the Jammaboards.com site sells (though they are currently out of stock).

This is the exact one that DarthNuno used, but that is also out of stock.

I would guess that either one will work; wherever you can find them.

I got it long time ago on ebay.com.

Yes, it works with all PC VGA monitors.

Not the same model than mine, but this one should work too ;-)

 

[jcterzin]

did you have to buy wires and connectors for it, or was everything you needed already in the cab?

Everything was already there
