Ok, so after many problems I had my busboard and graphics card (Spectrum24/28) working fine.
Today I loaded up ADoom and chose the current screenmode I was using.
It seemed a bit laggy so I quit. The I rebooted and the graphics through my card looked like this:

Everything had blue lines on it and bordering it and the mouse cursor turned into a squiggle.
Im not sure if this was to do with ADoom or not.
This happens everytime I boot up and graphics get terribly corrupted when using apps when they never used to and sometimes it just freezes.
I checked my screenmode setting in picasso prefs and it has all the same settings.
Anyone ever seen this before? Any ideas?
Thanks

Just uninstalled and reinstalled picasso96 and the same problem happens.
Doesnt look good...

This doesn't look like a hardware problem necessarily. What other software patches are you running? What version of Workbench are you using? Does your ROM version match your WB version?

Well I have fixed it now by moving it to the very lowest slot on my 6860 busboard. May have been a dirty zorro slot or something....

Interesting. I would normally expect a hardware or bus problem to exhibit a pattern of effects, not what I saw in your pictures. Well, at least it's working now. What happens if you put the card back in its original slot?

Hmm.. I have the same wierd looking problem but the lines are vertical insted of horizontal.
I usa a CVision64/3d CybergraphX but I tested Picasso96 too and the problem did not go away.
It started after I had my amiga in a box in the basement for a few years
