Is it possible to play a game without the dmd screen or can it have effects on another parts?
i do know i am missing a lot with the screen and need funding to buy a screen but was hoping in the meantime if i could play couple of games?

Post a wtb ad for a dmd. Lots of people jumping over to dmd, especially now with the upgrades. Guessing you could get a used one for cheap
Quoted from rollinover:those dmds are usually the oversized one and shockingly pricey! good luck
Actually many DE games use the narrower DMD, don't recall any using the wider one, Sega had a few games with the wider DMD.

Quoted from NYP:Actually many DE games use the narrower DMD, don't recall any using the wider one, Sega had a few games with the wider DMD.
There were only 4 titles produced with the larger DMD: Maverick, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Baywatch, and Batman Forever. Maverick was the only one made under the Data East name, as this was right when the company name changed to Sega.
There were only about 5 DE titles made with the smaller DMD, so actually, the majority of DE DMD games used the standard 128 x 32 like everyone else.
Quoted from beini:I have Lethal Weapon 3, do you know which dmd that uses MattElder?
128 x 32
Did you measure your voltages on your power supply? May not be your DMD.
If you have a blown fuse, likely it is the high voltage. Can you at least measure with a meter if they are ok?
No, i totally need dmd screen, two molexes have been cut out, one from j2 and the other from power to cpu the cn17.
You can usually get one for $75-100 plus shipping. Put out a WTB ad, someone will help you. Even cheaper if you aren't fussy about lines being out or shading.
