Well if the 25 inch monitor is an arcade monitor, mwmdragon has a great tutorial for hacking a arcade monitor for use on a PC. Check out his site at

: woohoo, okay, at this point in time, here's where my mame project stands.
: 1. CP is finished. has been for sometime thanks to joey holman, but now it's at least relevant.
: 2. the computer is on its way to being done and in my hands, a friend is building me one.
: 3. i am picking up an arcade cabinet with a 25" monitor so that i should be able to run both horizontal and vertical games at decent sizes and not have to worry about rotating the damn thing.
: So, once I have these three things in my hot little mitts, what, exactly, do I do to make it a living, breathing machine? step by step i mean.
: (okay, the one step i know is to take a keyboard cable from the CP into the keyboard port on the PC, and plug the keyboard into my CP's encoder thru... but other than that i am stumped.)
: thanks in advance, i may actually get this damn thing off the ground yet!!!!
