	Yes, I did connect both the RGB and the SVGA monitors to see what 
would happen.  The result:  the SVGA had the vertical black lines 
immediately while the RGB showed the program ( Publish It! 4 ) loading. 
It continued to load into memory, however, as soon as I attempted to open 
a file, the GS froze ( couldn't even access the CDA,s via Command-Control-
Escape ).  I had to warm boot the GS in order to launch another program.
The same occurred when I attempted to launch The Graphic Exchange.
	When I removed the SS card and used only the RGB, *both* programs 
launched and worked as they should.
	Sequential Systems ( Joe ) sent the latest Eprom  1.4 "Beef" and 
it is installed on the SS card.  BTW, I have a Rom 01, 4MB memory, Apple 
HS SCSI card, and a ZipGS ( 7/32 ).
