Have an Alpha that colors would vary with red & green tint in color on monitor. Switch all cables, monitor, etc. Found problem. The MPU had
up & down play. tweaked the tray that MPU slides in to make it tighter. Problem solved.
Thought this might help someone if they run into this problem.

My bartop Gamemaker HD does the same thing. So the MPU slides out? Can you show me just what I should be looking for? Last thing I want to do is screw something up.
Thanks, Jim

Can you share how you tweaked the tray, I've tried and I still get the occasional color flicker/changing

Ron has retired from the slot hobby and hasn't been on since 2022, so you probably won't get a reply to your post unless maybe someone else has had that same issue.  If replying to an old post like this it's really best if you find out when the original poster(OP) has last logged on.  You can do that by clicking on their name.  If it's been a long time then start your own topic.
