The Vertical stripes occur when starting up from cold. The work around which has never failed is to press the power-on button and almost immediately press the reset. If there is a delay of more than two seconds between pressing the two buttons the stripes sometimes occur. My Iyo has had the pyjamas since the beginning. Last year I bought the new graphics card hoping it might fix the stripes. It didn't, in fact, if anything, they are worse. When they occur now I have to power-off as the reset button does not cure the problem as it did before I changed the card. -- John Rickman - writing from A9home machine http://rickman.orpheusweb.co.uk --- To alter your preferences or leave the group, visit //www.freelists.org/list/iyonix-support Other info via //www.freelists.org/webpage/iyonix-support
