er… Hi Dean 🙂 OK, you did ask. As I described to Asha, when I first switch on everything is fine but only for about 10 Minutes. After that the Opal display becomes corrupt to the point of being white with thin horizontal grey lines down the screen. A warm boot does nothing to solve the problem but neither does a quick cold boot. I have to knock it off and leave it off for about 10 mins before it will work again, but even then, only for another 10 mins or less. I've replaced the original Agnus and it work fine. Tech sopport told me to ask Centaur if the Opal card worked with the 8375 Chip but I think the answer to that is 'yes' judging by some kind replies. Just before I forget, it works fine with a big Mod file (2 Meg needed) and DPaint. The company where I bought it has agreed to replace it just in case but please ask some more questions if need be. Best Regards, Barrie R Scott
