Title: atari super sprint arcade monitor issues
Post by: clizifer on January 04, 2014, 09:40:10 PM
i just aquired an atari super sprint upright arcade game. the game itself seems to work fine but the monitor doesnt. i beleive the previous owner had played with the settings and dials on the back of the tube. the picture looks all misaligned and the colors are off. ive uploaded a picture of what it looks like. is there anyway to clean up the image so it is atleast playable?

also im curious how hard it is to do a monitor swap on something like this. the guy i got it from seemed to think he could fit a bigger monitor in it and was going to use an old tv or computer monitor. is this possible to do? i see there is only 2 connectors going to the monitor. the first 2 wire is obviously power and im guessing the other 6 wire connector is the video feed. is this anything like a 15pin monitor connection with seperate power cord??

looks  like a old 19in should be a ton of them around  , might just  need a cap kit , don't put too much $$$ those games sell working in arcade auctions for less than 100  mostly under 50

this is the upright unit with the 3 steering wheels and gas pedals. I believe it is a 19". it says rca on it. where could I get a cap kit for it?
