Leander, TX
Is there a good website/forum to find good arcade machines? I'm looking for my first one.

Quoted from Nexyss:You probably just need to do a cap kit on the monitor chassis. If you are comfortable soldering, the kits are available for less than $20.
You can probably find someone in your area to do it for you if you don't solder. It is a pretty easy job. Just remove the old caps one at a time, and replace them with the new one as you go. You just have to make sure the new one goes in the same way to match the polarity of the old one.
You can also just buy an already rebuilt chassis (probably KLOV is your best bet) and just swap it if you don't want to solder.
Thanks, I'm terrible at soldering. Would it be better to switch to an LCD? I know it's more expensive but the video quality and flat screen would be an improvement, no? Can it even be switched to LCD?
