I would concur with Zac67.

It looks to me as part of your RAM is misbehaving and you only start getting problems when your system's memory usage gets to a certain point.

You can confirm this by filling up your RAM disk with files to use up all the RAM.

You really should try a modern version of WinUAE on a modern PC

I know people mean well by suggesting "use UAE", but this is clearly not what the OP wants to do. His query is regarding faults using original Amiga hardware which he wishes to preserve. He obviously has no interest in UAE at this time. So suggesting using UAE is actually not very helpful, even if it was well intentioned.

I don't intend to offend anyone who wants to help, but it is a little annoying when every single hardware thread seems to have at least one person saying "use UAE".

@Fixer
I am not disputing the benefits of UAE. But there are those (myself included) for whom using the original Amiga hardware is part of the fun of the Amiga. UAE just isn't the same.

I'm sure most people are able to make the decision themselves whether to persevere with their original hardware or scrap it and move to UAE. The fact that somebody posts a message asking for help fixing their hardware suggests that they have chosen the former option, and aren't looking for information on UAE.
