i searched everywhere on it,i can't find the brand of the monitor.you can look around the net and see if they mount a precise brand on all virtua striker 2 cabinets.the question was this anyway:the monitor works fine with its jamma game.the problem arise when i connect it to the pc.i'm using an ati radeon x100,and 6.5 catalyst drivers.i connect the whole jamma to the j-pac,set the jumper to15 hz,(the monitor is dual frequency,but a lot of peopole suggested me to set it that way),installed soft 15hz,and set install the 15hz mode (from soft15khz).now,when i turn it on,half of the times i see that black line\box running through the screen.so as you can see from the video,the only "good" part i can see,its only the upper part of the desktop.then there's the lower part but its a glowing neon color...

In those rare occasions that this black line doesn't show up,i can see just a little blurring,but movingthe hfreq knob on the monitor controllers,solve this issue.the other issue though is that the screen is enormous,no matter whichresolution i choose from display settings,or from MAME itself.if you look in my youtube channel,i posted a video of gauntlet in attract mode,and you'll see there that the letters and stuff are gigantic,no matter what options i tinker within mame(aspect ratio,resolution,triple buffering etc)the screen will always be that big.hope its clearer now
