I have no experience with those errors (knock on wood) but that might be an indication of a bad Analog Vactor Generator.

You could try re-seating it or if you have a spare board set try swapping them.

If diagnosed being the problem you can get a replacement here:

Just ordered a Atari AVG (P/N: 137179-001), unfortunately it wont be here for the party

Uh....I don't completely understand....did swapping over the AVG Fix the problem ?
I still see errors right ?

[Muerto]

Yeah, still errors - maybe I got 2 AVG´s that are producing errors - or none??  but Ill find out when I receive ArcadeShops version...
- but, between you and me, I thing the AVG´s are both good and there´s something else wrong...

[Muerto]

Yeeeeehar!!!!!! - Working flawlesssly again!!!
Changed all the VG RAM!!!

Thanks very much for your help on this Andre!!!!!!

[Muerto]

Hmmm, that didnt last long... New errors, only 2 this time though....

[level42]

maybe a socket(s) problem? However, i found out the hard way that old RAM chips from the 80s which haven't been used before sometimes last just a couple of hours or in fact are defective right away....

Working flawless, needed a new AR2 to supply the correck voltage...
