We have a Global VR V3 game at work that had a bad video card and I had to send it to them for repair. We have a digital WGD9200 monitor in that game. When I got it back it was out of sync and said out of range. I went into the settings and changed the display to 640 X 480 as the manual instructed and finally a picture came up looked great. So put the game back on the floor and then after about 5 min it began to scroll. I reset the game and again I got the out of range error before I could go back into the setting it really went bezerk and then finally the whole monitor went blank and never came back up. I hooked up my laptop to the monitor and still nothing. Fuse was ok still had 120 but no pic. Talked to Global VR and they said it was probably my monitor all along. Sooooo I took the PC over to another GVR game and plugged it in. It came up for about a min looking good then started scrolling and yep you guessed it the monitor went blank....arrrgggghhh so now I killed a good working game. I had a spare monitor so I got it back up and I have yet to work on the original monitor to see exactly what went out on it and I will post what I find when I do.
Sorry for the long post my question was have you guys seen a PC take out a monitor like that before? just curious

We have a Global VR3 at the CEC I work at. (By the way, it is the least played game out of the 70+ games we have). Our monitor went out once and we sent in the chassis and it came back fine. If it is scrolling, try adjusting the vertical hold. It might have been bumped.
 
no the monitor is not coming on at all....not an adjustment issue anymore. Just never seen a PC take out a couple monitors like that definetly something going on. I sent it back in
 
UPDATE....was a short in the yoke....dont know why I blew the other games monitor, but I think my assistant hooked up something wrong....case closed...
well after I find another tube
