It goes away after a few minutes (presumably when Agnus >heats up) so I assume it is a heat fault. No, it isn't ! I'm using an A2000 including Big(brother)Agnus (8372A). I updated this vhip a few month ago and I had this problem with my old and now with my new chip too. My problem is also a litte bit more extremly: my Amiga not only makes some jokes with the display he gurus !! So I'll say this must be another problem, for exaple the oscillator ! Perhaps Como uses some cheap ones. And perhaps some of them didn't be so tolorant as others in this cold state ?! Or what do you mean about this, Dave ? So long FastDial ** MyBBS V1.7g Four-Wheel-Drive just means getting stuck in even more inaccessible places!
