Help for Arkanoid
Question from Jason: Hello, I have a bartop Arkanoid arcade from like 1983. The screen is displaying properly. The video has been squeezed into a small vertical column, from top to bottom. I have taking a picture of it. I am happy to have found you guys. Hopefully my machine is not into too much trouble. Thank you for your time! Jason 🙂

Response from Jonathan: Jason,
It looks like your monitor is experiencing a vertical collapse issue which is usually caused by a problem with the vertical IC. In this case, we recommend checking out our post on Repairing Monitor Collapse Issues for more information. We also recommend installing a cap kit while replacing the vertical IC as you will already have the monitor chassis out of the cabinet and the soldering iron hot and ready to go. Please see our post on Installing A Cap Kit for more about that process. Of course, feel free to email us again if you have any additional questions about this issue and we’ll try to help you out further.
