Just fired up my A1200 after years of no action and I started to play Rick Dangerous and as you start moving I was seeing square or rectangular blocks of corruption around the character and trailing behind him. I initially put it down to being an old game and maybe needed the swap with the two mouse buttons on system startup. But then I started to see it on the Workbench screen, again squares of mess around where you are clicking.

I removed my 8MB ram board and its still happening..

What are peoples thoughts, ram, lisa?

Something else?

PS all the caps look ok, no bulging or leakage..

Tried pressing firmly down on Lisa which did nothing..

I also found the quickest way to see the corruption was to right click on a folder, the box just goes to a mess and then is ok after a second..
