The green screen means that there is RAM problem. It should mean chip RAM, not fast RAM. I hate to tell ya, but these chips can be bad without getting hot.
On the power LED flashing - how many times does it flash? This is also a code to tell you what's wrong, but you must get the number of times it flashes.
Hope you track it down..........

Now, as for the power LED, it flashes 11 times, the last being a little longer, and then the same again. Does it mean something other re-seat the Agnus?


I just ram across an old thread here that says 10 short, one long flash means something wrong with Agnus; to try cleaning contacts and re-seating. It may mean a bad chip too.

Motrucker, I already did the Agnus re-seating stuff. No changes.

If the chip is bad, you can re-seat it forever with no changes.......
