So I used to build pc's and sell them, then taught Cisco Networking at a votech. So an old tower computer had a motherboard, power supply, hard drive, and either built in video or a video card. Those components got you fired up, then you needed a media drive to install an operation system. Without any of that it wasn't going to work. And a monitor of course. So what are those key things in these old cabinets. Obviously, power supply, pcb board, crt, I would assume with those three things I should get something? BUt that is basically what you get with a jamma kit right? ps/jamma board/wiring harness, assuming a crt you have is good, so what are the basic things that if they don't work, then I get nothing? Because right now my power supply checks out perfectly, all hookups appear to be right, but I get nothing at all. No lights, no sound, nothing. Thanks in advance.

THanks guys, its surely not an original cabinet, https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B4qyCj4EfQj1NlI1ZDRaajhPRG8?usp=sharing been fooling with it today, replaced all bulbs, checked ps voltages, all is good, but nothing works. Zero power to anything. Not sure where to go from here, kind of wanted to know what worked and what didn't before I bought the jamma converstion kit.

Yes it is very heavy. We got it up the stairs and into my office though! I am so excited guys! This thing is all original, monitor, boards, everything, fires right up, kids and I played it right away. So cool watching my teenagers and my 6yo son play it. They had never really played a vintage machine. I'd say cabinet is in excellent shape considering its age, however the bottom front right corner is missing some wood grain laminate, and a few scratches but very good overall, IMO. Not crumbling at all. Appears to have all original graphics. It was in a church youth group classroom. They sold it to make room for a stage or something. This machine makes me realize just how rough that Ms.Pacman I bought is. Probably convert to a multi-game. Anyway, pics and possibly video coming tomorrow of this awesome Facebook yard Sale site find!
