Does it have an AGP slot? I just bought 512MB for $34 shipped and it has dual DVI. There are also a couple PCI cards that might work.

Yepper , It's great getting what was once bleeding edge tech for pennies on the dollar

monkeyboy · 04-29-2009, 06:41 PM

No AGP slot ether. I've been advised against the PCI cards. PCIe the only way to go. I've been searching craigs list and ebay for a cheap PC that will do the job.

Thanks, but as I'm going to make a virtual table I need a card with 2 separate DVI outs and run Hyper Pinball. One for the main play field and one for the top score field.

monkeyboy · 06-03-2009, 07:23 PM

My virtual Pinball Project is back on! Picked up a cheap PC with a PCIe slot on ebay and a Nvida 8800GT graphics card. Then I discovered I need a new power supply for the PC

These graphics cards draw lots of power.

celly · 06-26-2009, 04:27 PM

For my cab, I personally prefer Future Pinball. I like some of the options that I can do with it, camera tracks ball, change the room layout, stuff like that. Plus it runs better on my set up than Visual Pinball or PinMAME.

monkeyboy · 06-26-2009, 10:39 PM

This project is slowly coming together. I've got the main cabinet, a Pachislo case, I've got an idea on how the cab is going to be painted, the pc running Future Pinball with Hyper Pin front end, the playfield monitor, a 1920 x 1080 24" Dell and some second hand pinball table legs from ebay (need painting).

Hopefully over the next few months it will be up and running.

drcrippen324 · 06-26-2009, 10:49 PM

will be interested to see how it all turns out

Devo, your video pinball machine is one of the coolest things I've ever seen!

Have you finished it yet? Any new pics?

drcrippen324 · 01-18-2010, 04:36 PM

Ok time to hastle you both devospeed and monkey boy have you nearly finished yet would love ot see how they both turned out as im thinking of a vp machien myself

but Shhhhh dont tell 7

:wife:

monkeyboy · 02-11-2010, 01:08 AM

It's going really slowly. What with a new job and a baby about to start walking there are just not enough hours in the day for projects.

I pretty much have all the parts. My cabinet now has working push buttons. I need to mount the monitor into the cab, build the back box then paint the whole thing. It all works just need to put it together.

Good luck with yours.

devospeed · 02-11-2010, 12:52 PM

I ended up selling my pinball at about 90% done. I'm planning on building another one but with a totally different design.

drcrippen324 · 02-11-2010, 03:51 PM

cool look forward to seeing it as and when
