Try searching over at the Mecca - The MPU Mecca
I know there has been a few threads about this particular machine. You could even try posting your problem as there are a good few tech guys over there who maybe able to help.
Here's a PDF manual for the 'who wants to be a millionaire' machine which I believe is the same as the multiple game machines. Not sure if it will help.

sounds like the inverter has gone in the screen or backlight if it is old on laptops if you unclip the inverter for the screen n plug it back in ive found that 75% of the time the screen will come back this will be the same principle

Not really, no.
The monitor in the machine will be a CRT whereas you are talking about an LCD screen in a laptop.
Very different things.

Unless it has popped it's fuse, which Pentranics are not unknown for.
Look for signs of scorching/ overheating on the circuit board.
