I have posted your photos on my web site. Perhaps someone else can
help you.

Jango..
I have worked on some older video processors used in multimonitor video
walls and I have seen what looks like the problem you are seeing in the
faces..
What was causing my problem was the data on one of the higher number
data lines D6 or D7 line was completely missing (8bit A/D processor).
You might want to scope your data buses. Mine turned out to be a bad
plated through hole. Just a thought. Hope it helps

Wow, thanks kvm, that lead is very encouraging . Gonna scope them
busses first thing in the morn. Wondering if that means i should be
hunting for breaks in the Y drive, or logic board or LVDS or input
module......Whatever the case , i see faint glimmer of hope.
And thanks Franc for the webspace.
:)
cheers !
