JAMMAFY MY CAPCOM IMPRESS

[Mosque]

Hey people, I need your help. I have a capcom impress cab that was converted and had a vga monitor. well that monitor broke and I wanted to empty the cab and put in a whole new system. I want to change the monitor and the insides to back to normal "jamma state". Can anyone sell me or direct me (tell me what I need) to get the monitor, cables, etc to get this running to jamma state and mainly for CPS2 games.

-Thanks for any help guys n gals. CAPCOM INPURESU!

you need a monitor, i cannot help with that aspect, i am not sure where to source one online, i would check with some local arcade distributers or coinop supply companies within driving distance. What i would do is get a manual for your impress, figure out the original dimensions of the stock monitor, features you want, e.g. 15hz for common jamma games like neo geo, cps2 hardware, 24hz for medium res hardware, or if you require 31hz for 2000's hi-res hardware, e.g. if you plan on running Taito_Type_X hardware that requires higher res stuff.

you will need some soldering experience to wire up that jamma loom, and i need to know what your button situation is like, as well as your coin switches etc. Are you rocking a audio amp for stereo in that cab?

thanks for the response, could I get this http://www.ebay.com/itm/POWER-SUPPL...048?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f0954ccd0 and a new monitor and would that be enough? It's mainly for CPS2 games.

-Thanks

another thing I'd like to add is I already have the speakers and the audio amp like this : http://www.flickr.com/photos/artemiourbina/4185781832/

If you are starting over I would order a quality harness from Bob Roberts. You can get a good PSU from almost anywhere. Here is the manual for an Impress:

Does it still have the kick harness wired in it? If not you will need to get another one.

yea I have an extra kick harness. I'll look into the PSU.

thanks!

Thinking about buying that Makvision monitor on xgaming(com) very expensive at a $570 with shipping but I think I have no other choice. But it is a tri sync. Does anyone know if it'll fit? it is a 29" monitor and thats what an impress uses and I know if it does fit I can always use the black foam since it is a curve bezel and a flat monitor. so, does anyone know if it'll fit?

thanks

Why not just get the monitor repaired? what's wrong with it? Or get a replacement chassis for it.

hey, I tried fixing it. it had a crappy WG D9200 but I had the resolution too high and it messed up the controls for the picture. I was told to get IC chip (don't remember which one) but I soldered it on and still no fix. it's a pretty bad monitor anyway and I heard the makvisions are pretty good.
