Title: Convert to LCD Monitor Post by: gposing on May 21, 2013, 12:11:06 AM My 1401A monitor went out and I would like to replace it with a LCD. Is that possible? Are there any other monitors that I could replace it with?

You need a cga to vga converter which you can get on ebay pretty cheap but haven't tried it yet. I'm planning on doing that sometime in the near future if I can get some time to work on my fortune 1. Here's a link to some instructions.

Title: Re: Convert to LCD Monitor Post by: gposing on August 21, 2013, 12:30:18 AM I bought one but could not get it to work. I read something about the fortune 1 having reverse sync. Willing to try again but right now beyond my ability
