     My DKJR starts right up and looks great.  It plays just as it should but after a bit of time the screen scrambles.  If I shut it off and restart it the screen is fine.  It doesn't do it every time I fire it up but enough to be annoying.  Any ideas?

I had a similar problem with one of my machines. It all depends on the monitor. You could check to see if the sync cables are seated, and you could check the capacitors.

Mr. Hiru,

     Thanks for the response.  I adjusted the H-Hold and that seems to have fixed the problem.  I read on Klov that the H-hold can be a bit touchy on Sanyo EZ's.

There are also some pots on the game PCB for picture position.

Those pots do go bad. The Real Bob Roberts sells replacements.

John,

     Thanks for the tip.  Knock wood the screen looks mint and I haven't had any problems since adjusting the H-Hold.  My only problem now is breaking the 60K barrier Grin
