In Reply to: PC to Arcade Monitor without JAMMA board? posted by Joe on August 31, 1999 at 10:37:16:
: With PC2JAMMA, to use an arcade monitor we run the appropriate VGA pinouts to the JAMMA board. Does anyone foresee problems circumventing the JAMMA board and running the VGA pinouts directly to the monitor?
: Specifically, are their any electrical/safety considerations I need to make (i.e. grounding, etc.)
: Joe
Nope, not a problem..... I have done it and it works fine. Go here so see the pinouts...

Just hook up the correct wires from a vga cable to the correct ones on the monitor and it works great on most arcade monitors. Assuming you use a video card that is compatable.
Anyway, it should work fine.
