Hi.

I've been a lurker in the forum for over year whilst looking for my 1st arcade machine. Havn't found anything quite right in the for sale section yet. I did, however, buy my 1st machine from ebay last month. It's a Silver Strike Supreme Bowling and I got it for £50! Hantarex Polo 28" monitor is not working but I'm working through the fault diagnosis sheets. Game works with another VGA monitor though. Pretty good condition otherwise.

Edit. Diagnosing my faulty Polo

Yeah, I want to add a GT board and have it run both. Trying to stay away from the $400 'perfect solution' kit as it seems way over priced. May try to make my own version for far less.

Welcome to the forum Jon. What sort of games are you really after then?

Thanks. I wasn't really looking for anything in particular really, just something to work on. Had to be cheap, not too beat up have at least 90% of its parts. They seem to go pretty quick on this site.

Welcome - if you can't get the monitor working I have one here in Brighton.

I've just stated diagnosing the one I have and hopefully i'll get it working again. I'll definitely keep it in mind though and give you a shout if I'm at the end of my tether..lol

Symptoms are;

Neck glow. No picture or static. No Ticking that I can hear.

I'll post a topic in the tech section when I get a chance later.

edit. forum post link below.
