Can somebody refresh my memory? What does an all red screen mean? I know it means that one of the boot-up diagnostics failed. But which one? I'm having trouble with a GVP 030 combo board. Originaly I started having trouble with the onboard controller so I returned it to GVP and they promptly sent me a replacement. (Only took one day- great service!) But when I install the new board the computer will only last a few minutes before it locks up and crashes. That's when I see the red screen. Without the board the machine works fine with my original GVP Impact II controller running as a stock A2000 with the 68000 CPU. Can I have gotten a bad board? Or (dread the thought) could it be something with the motherboard of the A2000. This is most distressing! Any comments would be welecome.
