This has been the most annoying never ending battle with these boards. Or should I say monitors!?
Today I hooked up my xxxx-in-1 board to a Dynamo cab that has a Wells Gardner K7000 monitor. My bother has the same exact one in his, and also has the same issue.
On first boot up it worked fine on PAL settings. Loaded up a game (SFII) and got the screen picture perfect almost. It was a bit off but not really too noticeable and I was fine with it. I sat an wired up my whole control panel and get everything working except the5th & 6th buttons. So I properly shut down everything and tried to wire up the extra wires and fired it up once more.
The thing looked like this.......
Blurry as can be and nothing fixed the problem. I tried resetting it a few times with no success.
I had started to think that maybe I accidentally jostled something while getting it all hooked up and such. So I re-checked everything to see what may have come loose, and didn't notice anything out of place. Still upon another try out, the thing refused to display properly and I installed the board into my candy cab. Not only did the thing fire up properly on the first try, but it just looks so beautiful on my Sega Blast monitor. Crisp and clear as can be!
Has anyone figured out a way around this? A fix method for the monitor to take this board with no problems? Or is it better to just mame my dynamo cab with a jpac and computer and forget the board all together?
