Quoted from Euchrid:Ok, now that is a problem that makes no sense! Try new roms?
I agree, sounds like the video mode is corrupt. what version roms are you using?
Quoted from Mirage:On the dot matrix driver board?
Correct, should say the version, but the version is irrelevant you should not have this problem with any version. Buy a new set of roms should only cost you a few bucks from "JOHNWARTJR". If it doesn't solve your problems at least you can say you got new roms 
My DESW had an issue where the DMD would go blank. It was a ground issue. But this would only happen random not just a particular moment like a video mode. However, something could be shorting out when the video mode starts. As mentioned above when you are in video mode other things get switched off/on.
Quoted from phillymadison:The game might be doing you a favor cause the video mode is so bad. J/k
I'm gonna guess bad roms too. They're located on the board on the left side of the back box (when you're looking at the machine)
I think the video mode is really fun. Pretty bland looking, but very fun and challenging.
