Now I wonder if this type of thing could be what's crashing my machine!
I'm running an A500 with a Derringer '030, 4.5 meg 16bit ram, 1meg 32 bit.

(wb1.3, 512k chip)     When I exit Imagine, it only shows half of my
window for my hard drive, then my icon looks strange and staticky, then
sometimes my machine will guru when I try closing windows or anything.

The strange blitter problems are happening more and more frequently.  
Could this be from a bad Agnus, or could this be from Imagine doing
strange things to my system?
