Short version - Crystal Castles worked fine but with very dim picture. I sent the monitor out and when I got it back, there was very bad distortion which looked like horizontal sync problem which could not be adjusted out. I sent the monitor chassis back and was told monitor is fine. Might be the Crystal Castles MPU (which wasn't bad when I sent the monitor out originally).
A local tech came over and attempted to fix the problem by messing with the RGB wires on the chassis. In the process, he inadvertently touched a bare wire to the metal chassis, there was a slight pop, and now the game wont turn on at all, other than the fluorescent marquee bulb. I do see an LED lit on the MPU board. No fuses are blown. Anybody have any suggestions on where to start or what to do? Or any recommendations on who I can get to fix it in the Phila, PA area or suburbs? Thanks!
