hmm... I looked and looked, but could not find anything on the 8273B. Must be some kinda super secret "military spec" chip. Either that, or you transposed some digits... :-D
LOL :-)
Yeah, I looked very hard as well and couldn't find anything, except your post and the one in the link.

Looks like from the other topic, that the 8372A one meg chip may function in the A3000. I'm not gonna start chip swapping to find out though...
Soooo many variables...
Yeah, so he says in that link... but I'm not so sure as I haven't asked him (yet) to verify this for me, and also the statement isn't so clear.
I also asked the resident Agnus-gnostic master himself, AlexH and he says emphatically: NO
@ALL:
What Doobrey says about the possibility of a red screen caused by something other than a faulty KS is right, and the same goes for pretty much all the other colors: they aren't *necessarily* caused by an actual *chip* itself failing, but also possibly from a faulty connection/wiring to said chip(s), or a combination of faulty chips and wirings (as in my sad A3000 case...).
