Hey folks,

Just bought a Konami 29" sit-down style cabinet, and am getting read to MAMEify it (leaving the original JAMMA goodness intact no less).

Question though is, once everything is wired up properly, will it be safe to boot the DOS box with the Arcade Monitor on?

I've read through the FAQ's that i've found, but haven't seen that specific issue addressed. Are the BIOS/DOS refresh rates and frequencies safe for the monitor, or am I better off rigging two power switches into the box, one for the monitor and one for the system?

Muchisimas,

WebJester
