    Hello -

    I recently acquired a Star Wars Trilogy Arcade Deluxe version and am looking for help troubleshooting a display issue. I have searched online for coin-op forums, but I haven't had much luck. If anyone here knows of a forum for coin-op troubleshooting, or if anyone here has this Arcade game as well and can help me fix an issue, please let me know.

    Thanks a bunch!

    Sorry I never got the auto-email that was supposed to notify me of a response and I got caught up with school finals so I only saw it just now.

    I got the machien back and booted it up. The first 2 times I turned it on the screen was black, which is what I expected since that's how it was advertised. Surprisingly the display came up on the third start up and the entire machine worked flawlessly for two days. While my buddy was playing it in the third day the screen flickered shrunk to 3/4's of its normal size and then went black in the span of about 1.5 seconds. I haven't been able to get the display back up again since then.

    I know the game board works..I can still "play the game" I just can't see it. I tried connecting a standard CRT monitor into the board...it did receive a signal, but apparently the frequency was not within the range of the monitor...so there is a signal coming from the game board itself. This leads me to believe that there is an issue specifically with the projector monitor...but I am not sure what and not sure where to go from here.

    If anyone has any suggestions, I would really appreciate it!

    Thanks

    Did you at least try plugging it into the T-14 hyperdrive generator? It's written right in the manual.
