The bad news is: You are the fourth person to report this tearing; all four
of you have the GVP '030 boards.
We've alled GVP and they promised to send us a unit we could test, but it's
been over two weeks now and they did not send us one – so we can't identify
the problem. We _do_ know that it is caused by the GVP processor board;
it's screwing with the system clocks. It seems to be the only accellerator
that does this.
Until we get that 030 board from GVP, there is no way we can figure out
what's going on, and that means that you're going to have that tearing. It
is possible that it can be adjusted out (our clock circuitry is really
quite flexible) but we won't know that until we get it, as I say.
We suggest you call GVP, and try and get ahold of someone with some
authority – point out that they have not provided the board, and until they
do, we're simply advising our customers NOT to buy their accellerator, as
it seems to do "no-nos" to the system.
There is _no way_ that the accellerator board should cause these problems –
we're hoping that it's something unusual that is our fault, but personally,
I do think that the accellerator is at fault.
