Received a Popeye board, sold working.
I am running it on an Astro City cab with a Nintendo to JAMMA adapter.
I get sound, can coin up and start a game no problems, and it seems to respond to controls properly, but the picture is all white. I've adjusted the color pots on the adapter and on the monitor itself to no avail. Tried two different rainbow cables, no luck with either, and I checked to make sure the ribbon cables were properly connected. All other games I have run perfectly fine in the cab.
The only possible issue I could see is that the Astro City PSU outputs weak -5V, but based on the wiring diagram in the Popeye manual, it doesn't need -5V, just +5V.
Any suggestions? Does this board require a bit more +5V than other boards to run properly?
Never owned another Nintendo board, so I'm at a loss here.
Thanks as always, guys.
