I think this has been asked several times before, but I did not pay
attention since I didn't think it could happen to me :-), perhaps it
should go into the frequently asked questions posting.

The rgb monitor attached to my A1000 has started "snapping", about once
every 5 or 6 minutes.  At first I didnt think it was a big deal, but
once, when I was debugging my LUCAS board, I noticed that whenever the
monitor snapped, my logic probe would indicate a pulse occured even when
it was not actually in use.  I assume that something nasty is happening
to the power supply during these snapping episodes. 

I dont remember the model number of the monitor, but its the one that
was sold back in the very beginning of Amiga time.
