Fairlight-CMI

After a hopeful reseating of a Q219, that'd be my first guess too: video ram, first, then the gizzards that surround it:)
- Currently enjoying the Ryiuchi Sakamoto "Neo Geo" vid from your dvdborn page, first heard him in his work with Roddy Frame (w/ Fairlight, I believe, on "Dreamland" and such (though not shown in this live vid w/someone else on keys:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XX3y4UiQA18, and the two's "Same Dream, Same Destination":http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYt-OxK3zCE
, but come to love the stuff he does on his own very much, especially ethereal, introspective stuff like:

Apologies for digressing so.

Dying video RAM.  It's possible it's also some of the glue logic 

surrounding the video RAM, or the shifter, but the dynamic RAM is pretty 

fragile.
