Got a strange problem with one of my CyberVision 64 4MB cards... Take a look at the picture below.
Those two red "blocks" follow the pointer, and after a while there will be graphics glitches on the Workbench when closing windows and so on.... anyone seen this before?
I have ruled out the daughterboard, buster chip.
Have tried another identical graphics-card in the same machine, and there are no glitches, so this is not software related either.
If i wiggle the card a bit, I can see differences in the graphic disturbances, but only minor changes.
(those horizontal lines are there only because I took a picture with my phone on a MV1438 monitor, CRT)

I'm getting an "X" where your picture is. If you scroll down under where you're writing your post there's an option Attach Files --> Manage Attachments, that will let you attach a picture directly to your post instead of linking to an external site. ;)

Thanks a lot... fixed :)

The cv64 has alot of socketed chips if i recall, try pulling them and reseating them. it may be bad contact on one.

Common problem with CV64's.
Mech is right, need to push in your memory chips until you hear a click. Problem solved...
The other socketed chips aren't the problem, but I would give them a push anyways...

Hmm you all seem to be right! Thanks a lot.
Removed the chips now just to see if it made any difference. No graphic glitches when they are removed.
Will clean them a bit along with the sockets and try to reseat them.
Happy new year everyone!
