CPS2 A-Board with washed out colors in picture

Post by Shadolf »

I would like to buy an CPS2 A-Board from tony stark, but the board has some issues. The display of some of the images the colours do appear washed out. What could that be and can this be sorted out? Would be nice, as I'm looking for a good priced A-Board for some time now.

Is it confirmed that it's isloated to this A board (i.e. not caused by something else like the monitor, due to oxidation on the jamma connector (male or female), etc.)?

:edit: he says in his FS post it's the supergun, not the board:

"All boards have been tested and work. I have been having issues with my supergun with the diaplay in some of the images the colours do appear washed out.

Rest assure though this issue is my supergun not the boards. "

Yes I know that, but he has sent me a PM today, that the issue is with the A-Board and not with the supergun as thought before. I asume he had the opportunity test the board without the supergun. I told him about me opening this thread so that we hopefully can solve that issue.
Stark, are you out there?! Would you please give us the details about your testing.

Here are some pictures from the board. Thought maybe some bad caps. Or something visible.

Hi all,

If anyone is technically minded I don't mind sending them the A board so they can have a look.
Starks is always out.
