Hey Andy,
Is this an issue with the ram? Mine just did this same thing.. I might have a spare card, I might not.. Do you know where this is exactly?
Thanks!

Roy, do you still have the link for this video of your error? I'm having an occasional issue with the character generation on my VDU card. Not sure if it is the 2732 character generator ROM, or the memory.
I'm going to clone the 2732 just to be safe.

Hi Anthony,

I deleted that video from Vimeo, I should have kept it available but I can't find it.

My issue was same as yours, I finally got it working by moving around the ribbon that connects the daughter board.  the I got the idea to try and change  the ribbon but the side that is soldered in proved to be too hard to find so got another VDU card.
