what are you using for your monitor, original hardware?

are you booting the xbox classix straight into coinops 5 or are you going through a dashboard like slayers / avalaunch first?

just incase you fancy GTA san andreas.....

I dont want the xbox to boot straight to coinops, thats a big mistake. 
if you screw something up, its way harder to fix it when all it wants to do is boot into coinops.
i do play original xbox games on it as well .
Somebody offered me 800 bux for the donkey kong last night i refused the offer.

I use LCD monitors, amps for the speakers, sacrifice original xbox controller to make a stick, have new plexi cut. original hardware did not come with these machines (except missle command) they were stripped.
everything about these things ive done from scratch.  i did buy two xarcade sticks but i found making a pad hacked stick was nicer.

These are the only machines i will be doing this to.
From now on its either gonna be a working cab or hyperspin.
