Two possible fixes attached. The first attempts a full reset of all blocks if the MC (memory controller) is hung. That may work better than just resetting the MC. The second just disables MC reset. I'm not sure we can reliably tell if it's busy due to display requests hitting the MC periodically which would lead to needlessly resetting it possibly leading to failures like you are seeing. Alex
