Message-ID: <1991May08.185945.11611@dialogic.com> Date: 8 May 91 18:59:45 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: Dialogic Corporation Lines: 17 I have an A500 with a rev 5 mother board and I'm constantly having to reseat the AGNUS chip. It'll work for a while, anywhere from 30min-5hrs, then the computer locks up and I get a garbled screen. When I reboot, the screen stops on green and the power light blinks. I'm at the point where I just keep the cover off because it's such a hassle taking it off everytime I use the thing. It also seems to occur earlier if I put it all together (as if to really annoy me). Who says computers don't have a mind of their own!! Has anyone else had this problem?? Anyway to solve it?? Is it the socket or the soldering?? Is it my AGNUS at all?? What day is it??? Who am I????? Where am I????????? /// ///Kam \XX/kamran@dialogic.com "Every Saturday we work in the yard, pick up the dog doo, hope that it's hard..." - Joe Walsh :)
