CGA to VGA Conversion


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys, this is my first post.

 

I am restoring a Daytona USA cabinet and have converted to LCD monitors. I used the GBS8200 or HD9800 video converters and its giving me trouble.

 

 

As the machine starts the colour is great although about 5 mins in, the screen starts to turn pink and progressively gets more and more pink. I have tried adjusting the colours on the board but cant seem to get it right. If I switch the machine off and on straight away the board resets and colour is back to normal.

 

 

Do you guys have any suggestions? Is there another board I can purchase instead of the $20 ebay ones?

 

 

Thanks in advance

 

 

Danny

You get what you pay for with converters.

 

While I have not used this converter I have used other Cypress converters in the past and found them to be good.

As for the one you brought looks like others have had a similar issue.
