  12. I swapped the 8372A from a rev 6A 500 with my 8370 in my rev 5 500, and
  13. performed the 1 meg chip hack, and that worked..  My 500 is fine..
  14.  
  15. D
  16. The other 500, however, is NOT fine..  With the way I have my 1084 adjusted,
  17. with a totally back screen (with the computer on) I have a red, green, and
  18. blue line at the VERY top of the screen.  (If you look "up" at them you can
  19. see them..)  When I turn the other 500 on, this happens (with the computer
  20. off the screen is completely blank) but nothing else does.
  21.  
  22. What woudl cause this 500 to not do anything?  It has power, I haven't
  23. changed anything except the Agnus.  Would this cause it?  My head aches
  24. too much to try swapping the Agnu's again to check..
  25.  
  26. Should I reseat all of my chips, or what?
  27.  
  28. I haven't tested this 500 in a long time.  I hope nothing happened to it
  29. during that time period..
  30.  
  31. Thanks for your help..
