Title: Big Buck Hunter Problem..... Post by: Lancester on April 09, 2009, 09:09:47 PM I'm hoping someone here might be able to help me with an issue. I have an original ITS big buck machine that was working fine, however I wanted to upgrade to a newer version. I bought a big buck hunter sportsmans paradise board set & hard drive from a seller on ebay & installed it in this machine. The problem is that the video is bad. The game boots up & is playing, but the video is almost all yellow & splits the view into 5 images, very 'snowy".
The board is the very same one as the one I replaced, but the hard drive seems to be the only difference. Any input would be appreciated. Title: Re: Big Buck Hunter Problem..... Post by: channelmaniac on April 11, 2009, 12:08:48 AM That sounds more like the video signal is wrong for the monitor.

Cool car. I have a '67 barracuda..... Title: Re: Big Buck Hunter Problem..... Post by: Lancester on April 13, 2009, 05:31:13 PM After talking to a tech at its, I have found that once the upgrade is done, it will only work with a medium resolution monitor, Apparently mine are standard. Does anyone know any way around this short of changing the entire monitor?
Title: Re: Big Buck Hunter Problem..... Post by: a69mopar on April 13, 2009, 09:34:46 PM I believe some monitors can switch between standard and medium resolution, I think there is a plug on the chassis that changes position. Cannelmaniac?
Good luck, Wayne p.s. I always liked the Barracuda. ever go to the Mopar Nationals? Title: Re: Big Buck Hunter Problem..... Post by: channelmaniac on April 16, 2009, 03:41:07 PM Unless you have a dual-sync or tri-sync monitor the only hope is to swap the monitors.
