I have an issue with my Arcade Cab CRT Monitor not staying stable. I think it is a horizontal hold issue but I'm not sure. Could someone help me identify what my exact issue looks to be?

Issue

Thanks
 
what is the monitor model number?
What is the game you are trying to play?

Was it working before and then just stopped? Or is it something that you just hooked up (my guess)?

Looks like the monitor isn't getting sync or possibly v-hold is way out of whack?

Were can I find the model number?
It is on a WMMT1 Cabinet and I am trying to play WMMT3.

I don't know for sure if it worked properly, i just hooked it up just recently.

Is the v-hold pot somewhere other than near the h-hold?
 
29e31s is a VGA monitor. I'm not too familiar with the game board you are trying to play on it. Are you positive it is outputting VGA resolution? Have you checked the dip switches on it?

Do you have a laptop or computer with VGA output? If so plug it into the monitor, set the resolution to 640x480 and see if the problem still remains. That will help narrow down if there is something happening with the monitor itself.

I plugged in the N2 PC to a VGA monitor and the display shows just fine so I don't think it is a dip switch issue. If it is, I will look to see where the dip switches are located on the motherboard of the console. I will also try plugging in a laptop to the CRT monitor to see if I get the same issue when running the laptop on the CRT monitor.

I will also test plugging in a NAOMI2 or a Chihiro to see if I get the same problem on the CRT monitor.
