Ok. so I'm working on a Stun Runner and finally get the video sinc and stable only to realize that not only is the image upside down..its backwards as well...as in the text is reversed. I haven't done a cap kit on it yet..but I doubt a cap kit is the issue. Is it one of the ICs? The one located in the middle of the board has been replaced ..because I see where a previous tech installed a socket for it. Any clues where I neeed to look?
 
reverse the yellow and green wires on the yolk and reverse the blue and red wires on the yolk.....but first check the test menu on the game to see if it has a setting to flip and invert the image....ive see a few boards that do....fighters history is one that comes to mind
 
On the K7900s the yolk wires are soldered..so swapping them is a last resort. I haven't seen a config menu yet that would allow this. I do have another 7900 chasis that I can test though. However I CAN try swapping the yolk wires at the board where they plug in.

This is where it's usually done. The yolk connector is four pins long. A lot of times it's already been split/cut down the middle. This allows you to just "flip" the connector. No need to fight with removing the pins.

hmmmmmmmm..

Yeah, that has *always* bugged me... I never understood why this gets mixed up so often, because I always thought it was very obvious, but...

This is a yolk. It's part of an egg. You eat it.

This is a yoke. You put oxen in it. You use it to steer them.

I mean, I know the words sound the same, but they have completely different meanings. You don't "brake a lamp", any more than you put "new breaks on your car". Everyone still knows what you mean, but it reads weird.

Hey- I offered up my arcade advice to That80sGuy yesterday.

and what? You don't think spelling help is useful?

Listen- I got bumped from the 8th grade spelling bee on 'environment' because my damned teacher pronounces her 'r's as 'arrrah' and thought I had messed up.

I protested and even had competitors back me up to no avail.

Man, I could have taken that thing all the way. Everybody would have been standing and cheering and Lisa Jones would have kissed me.

Instead, I got chumpatized.
 
So I guess you could say the yolk was on you. hehe










thank you!! I'll be here all week... remember try the veal and tip your waitress!
