Yours is a common problem Greg.

Apparently, you have an A2000 that has the ECS Agnus (1 MB) and a "Normal"
Denise chip.  Also it appears that you are using KickStart/AmigaDOS 2.04
or higher.  You can run the "ShowConfig" program, which is normally found
in Workbench's "Tools" drawer, to determine which chipset you have.

In order to fix the problem you have described, you will need to replace
the "Normal" Denise with an ECS Denise (Commodore PN: 8373).  The part is
about $50 USD and a qualified technician should do the installation.

The "black bar" problem only occurs with images that are in overscan
resolutions (i.e. 704x480), but does not affect non-overscan images
(i.e. 640x400).
