Most SC1224 monitors work fine with the jaguar.

With my Jag, (when console is not hooked to the Sony 34") I use the Commodore 1084s monitor, and it works great.

I use the SC1435 in my Kiosk and get incredible resolution so I know what you're talking about. The difference is truly amazing. Enjoy!

Any ideas on where to find the RGB cable for the Jag? I can't seem to find one anywhere, and I generally don't have the time or the patience to create my own.

Anyone know where, in the UK, I can get an edge connector the right length? sounds dumb but neither of the catalogs I have stock them in non-standard sizes).

They're almost impossible to find. You usually have to get a bigger one and chop it down. That's almost as much work as getting a Catbox.

Put the CD back on and then try it with and without the monitor. You might find that it won't work on anything with the CD inserted.

I'm not sure. I have heard some people have had this problem with other games. It might be the boot code in the CD drive isn't setting up the video.
