Anyone else seen this before? The displayed image is fine during boot up and in attendant or diagnostics menus, but its too wide in the game. Height is fine. I did just replace one of the CCFL lamps in it, so it does seem like something from that, but I am torn as the boot and menus are fine, but what do I know. Going to swap monitors anyway when I have a little time. No the machine is not hanging from the ceiling. Pics are right side up, don't know why it shows two upside down, even rotated them upside down and still shown upside down. Whatever. Thanks for reading.

Damn, I was so hopeful and kicked myself for never going into the monitor menu. I had never even noticed the buttons, but no auto adjust in there. Only the four buttons that I see to access the menu, navigate and exit. Unless there is multi hold I don't know of. Can't find info any where on the Kristel menu or auto-adjust. So strange. Hopefully some time to swap monitors tonight.

I guess one of the buttons is auto tune as I see the labels on other Kristel monitors, but it does not do anything. Got to swap the monitors first to see what that does.

Well I finally got some time and it's not the monitor, swapped it. Not the software, swapped it. It's the video card or the CPU. Swapped the CPU and the problem follows the CPU. Next time available I will change it back to video and pull the reels as the machine was working fine as video only. Would be weird if it was fine again as only video, but maybe something happened to the CPU or video card between swapping things. So weird everything works fine as far as menus, WMS logo screen, and even the Goldfish loading screen right before the game screen displays. I'll keep this going until I test with video only and probably then swap video cards to get to my resolution.
