- We have the same problem on the user group's ROM 01 GS. It works fine
- just as a bare-bones machine, but once I plug my ZipGS 8/16 in, I get stray
- bits of corrupted pixels on the SHR screen. Text/HGR/DHR/etc. is fine, and
- forcing a refresh of the SHR clears off the bits, but eventually they
- return. It isn't a general memory corruption problem since I've never seen
- the colour palettes get screwed nor has the computer crashed.
