I'm trying to trace a random lockup on my A3000 and as part of that, I'm testing the RAM with MBRTest-2.
For anyone familiar with MBRTest-2 out there... during tests do you notice graphical glitches on the screen? It's hard to describe but as one example, a horizontal line appears and rolls down the screen then everything is fine for a few and then it may come back... almost cyclic.
Also, sometimes the entire screen will flicker/flash and then back to normal.
Hope this makes sense...
