[comp.sys.amiga] Crashes when icon selected

vincelee@earthquake.Berkeley.EDU (Vincent H. Lee) (08/27/90)

Please help:

My amiga crashes once in a while and I haven't found out why.  It happens 
sometimes just when I double-click an icon on the Workbench and no other
time.  It has occurred with disk icons, drawer icons, .. all sorts.  Anyway,
just after I click the icon, the overscan area ABOVE the screen gets turns 
white, and the machine gurus. (usually 00000003 or 00000000b guru #'s).  The
overscan color changing seems weird to me.  Has anybody else seen this?

By the way, my system is very nonstandard--an A500 with 1Meg Chip, Lucas and
Frances boards with 4Megs of 32-bit ram, and Kickstart in 32-bit RAM.  I am
also running a number of programs in the background.

I haven't been able to isolate a cause as the repeatability of the crashes is
intermittent.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance
