Closing this case with the agreement of Kenji Noguchi and Satoshi Asara.
On systems with an ATI Mach64 graphics card, sometimes the monitor will
lose synchronization or become stuck in power-save mode.

From the 3.2d-2 readme for the latest kits. A simple find for Mach found this.... sounds similar... but it depends which files where patched in your original one (more often than not nowadays the readme describes *some* of the problems the patches fix. BTW are you talking about 3.2d-2 or 3.2d-e2 - you have the patches for one and talk about the other..... I realise there's not much difference but sometimes that can be the problem. ============================ << START OF PATCH >> ============================== PATCH ID: OSF365X-350016 SUBSET(s): OSFSERPCI365 ******************************************************************************* SUPERSEDED PATCHES: OSF365X-350010 PROBLEM: (MGO101857) (Patch ID: OSF365X-350010) ******** Dashed lines with a line style of LineOnOffDash are too short when displayed on an ATI Mach64 graphics option.
