Re: new question- converting monitors from Vertical to Horizontalis it possible?

Well- I tried some stuff- but before trying some stuff I decided to plug the monitor in to see if it even shows some signs of life- The board burst into flames so I guess the question is moot. So much for a free monitor. Thanks for the responses

  You're probably talking about the sync inputs. The only way to convert the monitor from "vertical games" to "horizontal games" is to physically turn the monitor 90 degrees. "Horizontal games" have the monitor turned like a TV set, long axis is horizontal. In "vertical games" the monitor is turned so the long axis is vertical.

  The H and V connections are for the sync signals. Most monitors even have a second set of H and V inputs for the opposite polarity of sync signals. Which ones you use are determined by which polarity your game board puts out.

    This is probably better for Rasterlist- but there Ive seen no traffic. Does anybody know of a web resource that tells how to do this? The monitor in question is a WG something or other. There appears to be a plug that tells the chassis whether its H or V- Hell I'm just going to try some stuff. If anybody has any ideas I'd appreciate it...
