I have an older (purchased in 1986) ST with tos 1.0.  It has an easieST memory
expansion board installed with 2mb for a total of 2.5 mb of memory. Recently,
when the machine is warm -- on for at least 1 1/2 hours -- it locks up.  Narrow
vertical lines appear on the screen as do eleven bombs.  If I can successfully
reboot I often get a machine with only 1/2 mb of memory available.  I had the
connections to expansion board soldered in.  That has improved but not
completely solved the problem; the same thing happens, but less often and the
computer can be on longer before it happens.  Any ideas?  Anybody else ever
have some thing like this happen to them?  Much thanks in advance!!!
