I know of LOTS of examples of MEGA STE's with this bad chips that causes the monochrome diplay to wrap when you change screen adresse and causes static in the DMA sound, but Atari Corp won't confirm this and tell me that this is only a problem with my machine (but you are the 4th one I've heard about). Replace the chip with a chip from an old STE (not the same number so you need the print-layouts for both MEGA STE and STE to do this, the chip is called GSTSHIFTER and has to do with both video and sound in the STE machines..) I would again like a comment on this from Atari Corp. You can't just ignore this problem that applies to a great number og MEGA STE's !!!!!???
