Summary: Sounds like memory problem

)

According to the technical information I have read on the A500 and 1000
a green screen during boot-up has to deal with "local ram" - (i.e. 
possibly a bad ram chip).

There are also some other interesting colors that signify other problems:

RED SCREEN - Possibly a bad ROM,  Agnus or Gary (on 500)

YELLOW SCREEN - 68000 is stuck on NMI / Possibly a bad 68K or Paula.

GREEN SCREEN - (Mentioned above) Local Memory, possibly bad ram.

BLUE SCREEN - Bad Denise, Paula, or Agnus.  Possibly all are bad.

---> NOTE: DO NOT attempt any repairs on your own.  Bring your machine
     to an authorized Commodore service center.

My apologies to Commodore if I'm posting something they'd prefer me not to
post.
