OK, so I got a free Noir, but it's in pieces and I didn't get them all. Some more are coming, but not sure how it all goes back together. It's got a Tekken 7 game in it (and marquee), but the light is florescent, not LED, so... I'm thinking 720p monitor.

The inside is totally gutted (so it could be powder coated), but now I only have the PC case on a piece of wood and no wires. What you see below is what I have on hand and I've attached what I could based on what looked correct. Oh there is also a marquee light and topper that I haven't attached yet. The marquee light has wiring still.

Here are some questions.

1. From the monitor label can you tell which one it is?
2. Can someone post pictures of the coin area so I can reconstruct this metal I have for it.
3. Can I plug the Tekken 7 directly into an LCD TV via HDMI to test it?
4. Are there easy speaker replacements available?
5. Can the plastic for the sides/front be sanded? They have really bad cig burns and I wanted to clean them up.

Congrats on the freebie. I can answer some of these questions for you.

1. From the monitor label can you tell which one it is? - You have SANWA branded LCD imo its the better one.
2. Can someone post pictures of the coin area so I can reconstruct this metal I have for it. - Pics added
3. Can I plug the Tekken 7 directly into an LCD TV via HDMI to test it? - Yes you can but you may need to play with the input source on the tv. If it doesnt detect try a DVI to displayport adapter (its ps3 hardware inside the tekken games).
4. Are there easy speaker replacements available? - Yes and no I found some online but they were slightly large
-Small tweeter is this one : S32U10-1 3W 4OHM
-Large tweeter is: no more than 3inch 4-8 OHM
(you can measure between the top left and bottom right scre holes to find the right dimesions for replacment.

5. Can the plastic for the sides/front be sanded? They have really bad cig burns and I wanted to clean them up.
They are thin so scuffing them would be the best bet. It will be hard to return it to the gloss black colour after this however.
Last question do you have the I/O board from the back of the cabinet?

Thanks so much. I don't have that board, what I have is in the pics.

The person who have this to me has found more parts, so I'll see what he has next time I meet up with him!

I plugged the T7 into my HDTV and it just beeps 3 times, then beeps 3 more times and sits. Nothing on the screen and the HDMI is not outputting anything. I think I have to get into the computer to set the output to HDMI on the card, but I don't have DVI cables so it will have to wait.

Does the T7 board have the USB dongle key with it? The hdd inside also may have come loose from the SATA connection.

Sounds like an issue with the RAM, they can be swapped without the risk of tripping Bitlocker. The ES3 is essentially a PC. It could also be an issue with corrupted motherboard BIOS or some other underlying issue with the motherboard, but I recommend checking the RAM first.
 
Oh I have 2 USB thumb drives, but neither were plugged in. Should I try to boot with them plugged in? I figured I’d see something on the screen first.

The system should post without any dongles plugged in
 
OK, so I have the two dongles but even without them plugged in it should post. I'm getting nothing on HDMI but potentially I need to get into the system first and switch to HDMI out. Well, I guess I have to find some DVI cables! I have one, but it has all the pins and this graphics card has the kind where the last 3rd of it has slots.
 
Probably best to test the ES3 out of the cab first.
 
Here are the two USB keys I got. The one with the cap off was originally installed, but I forget which USB slot (if it matters?).

So, did I brick the HD by not having it installed when I turned it on?
