Donkey Kong Monitor issues
Question from Manuel: Hi,
I am having a weird issues with my Donkey Kong machine. I have scoured the web for some kind of insight into the cause of the issues but have been unsuccessful below are the details:
1. The game has slight distortion lines that seem to follow the barrel’s trajectories across the screen. I have seen it occur with other moving sprites. The distortion lines resemble the scrolling lines you see when you video take a CRT monitor on film except the lines follow the barrels horizontal path across the screen in both directions.
2. Every so often I see like a flicker in the screen while playing the game. On rare occasions the game restarts following one of these flickers.
Thank you for your time and for the awesome informative videos.

Response from Tim: Try turning the brightness and or contrast down some.
If the game restarts its probably a power supply issue. You can convert that one with a kit for http://www.arcadeshop.com
