I am hoping someone can answer a couple of questions about the A4000. It is a small problem I found the other night while moving the computer around when it was running. When it is standing on it's side (it is not a tower) or on an unbalanced table that kind of twists the casing, The graphics sometimes go all screwed up and blank the screen, usually resulting in an evil software failure. I know it is not the Monitor as it does the same thing with three different ones. Has anyone else had a problem with this when you apply pressure (ever so slightly though) to the bottom of case or twist the case a small amount. I know the bottom is practicaly touching the motherboard but a very small pressure sometimes screws the graphics and locks the system up. It seems odd that there would ever be a problem moving the computer while it is on to get at cables and such. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael King -With one wheel, only half the concentration mgking@acs.ucalgary.ca is ever needed! --------------------------------AMIGA--------------------------------------- -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael King -With one wheel, only half the concentration mgking@acs.ucalgary.ca is ever needed! --------------------------------AMIGA---------------------------------------
