I am currently having a strange problem with my Timemaster card.  It seems
to work just fine (ProDOS is able to timestamp my files ok) ... until problems
occur.  The symptom is always the same -- it puts the following characters
on my screen in inverse video:
					+

					E
					R
					Y

Then, usually about 15-20 seconds later it pops me into the monitor.  It
sounds like a stray interrupt (I run the clock with interrupts disabled, so
it shouldn't be that), but why should it put that junk on the screen first?
It usually happens when I am running the linker (MANX) for my C compiler.  I
also run with two other AE cards -- 1M ram and the Transwarp accelerator
card.  I have tried 3 combinations:  ram & clock, accelerator and clock,
ram and accelerator.  It only happened when the clock was present.  It
happens the most frequently when all three are present, but I suspect that
is because things just happen faster (I put all of my source code, object
code, and tools in the ram card; at 3.6 MHz and no disk I/O it REALLY FLIES!).

I called AE about it and they have never heard of such a thing occurring.
Anybody out there see it before?

	Thanks a lot,
