Upton, N.Y. Lines: 27 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. ---- The invisible Snaf: atc@bnl
