Can you use a Popeye monitor with a non Popeye PS?
I recently converted a Popeye to a DK. I put in a DK compatible PS and a gazillion dollars in wiring. I put it all together and had it up and running ALL day Saturday with no problems. I plugged it in today and I get a Scrambled/dim screen and a continuous wah wah wah sound.
I took the board out and plugged it into my Jr can and it works great. I left it plugged into my DK PS and ran the monitor cable to my Jr monitor and that worked great. I am guessing either the Popeye monitor died or it is not getting enough juice from the PS.
I find it odd that the monitor would die in one day. It was super crisp and sweet on Saturday.
