Getting a weird buzzing noise on my 9200 WG monitor. It doesn't do it on my 1 slot neo geo board but it does on my Atomiswave and naomi boards. Here's the vid of the problem maybe someone can help me. I want to sell this cabinet and I want to make sure everything works perfectly.

The video input board on the 9200 has two connectors on top of it.

The cable from the monitor neckboard will plug into either one of those connectors.

One of the connector is labeled "CGA/EGA" and the other is labeled "VGA".

Be sure that neckboard cable is plugged into the "VGA" connector and not the "CGA/EGA" one.

His AW is obviously set to run at 15khz.

Perhaps cab is wired for MVS stereo and this is causing the bad sound.

I read about a similar problem and that was the solution...

The monitor actually sounds like its "clicking" - not from just from the speakers.

The Naomi and atomiswave are set to 15khz, I know if I set it to VGA it will work fine. But I want it to run on 15khz to make sure that it works.

It's nothing to do with the speakers. You couldn't tell from the video but the sound was working fine on all boards

Do you have any other boards to test it on?

Just a suggestion, try turning the contrast down and see what happens.

The Nieman in my Blast City hates high contrast and will actually make the entire monitor flash during any "white" explosions... i.e. Metal Slug.

This morning I triedy hyper neo geo64 board and it worked fine. So it's just those 2 boards. But the weird thing about it is it worked fine before.

I don't hear any buzzing... Just the fan.
