help with ps2 rgb/vga cable

[suicidalmonkey]

So I've been trying to put together my own rgb cable for my ps2 and I've been having some problems.  The monitor I'm trying to connect to is a wells gardner d9500 arcade monitor.  It uses a 15pin dsub connector as any normal crt monitor would.  It can automatically sync between 15, 25, and 31 khz.  Playing mame games at native res is no problem.

Now, when I made the cable, I followed the standard lm1881n type circuit minus the 220uf caps on RBG.  Now, if I leave pin 3 from the lm1881n disconnected from pin 14 on the dsub connector I get some output, but the picture is rolling on the screen horizontally with a "no sync" message from the monitor.  If I connect this, I get a blank screen.  I had hoped that the screen was just dim, but I can't see ANYTHING on the screen.  Not even the slightest.  Also, when playing games at 15khz through mame the monitor makes a certain high pitched noise that I definitely don't hear when I get the blank screen through the ps2 cable.  

By all rights, this should work.  I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.  Can anyone lend a hand?  I'm about to give up and send ultimarc a ton of money to make the problem go away...lol.

Thanks

I had built an RGB cable for my PSOne, worked great for that console. I had hopes that it would work just fine for the PSTwo, but it had some serious issues.

Instead of using a LM1881N in the cable, I modified the PSOne mainboard to output the sync signal to the A/V connector. This is why the cable would not work on the PSTwo and I had to include the LM1881N and atleast one capacitor to the cable (green line).

Now the cable works great on any of the Playstation consoles I throw it at!
