GAME	comment	fix
Bonanza Bross [1991]	⚡ display in the main menu and in the game jumps (*1)
Hero Quest - Comercial Release [1991] [EC279622]	❌ freezes after load	fixed after 467c4fe
Shadows of Sergoth [2020]	❌ screen corruption, generates random crashes	problem persist after 84c5ad6

1. The screen size of the game is bigger than normal: CRTC R1 = 32 (instead of 40); CRTC R6 = 32 (instead of 25); (R1*R6 = 1024 against 1000 for a normal display) but the visible area is smaller. In fact the R9 has been modified (Value &07 to &05), a line of text is no longer 8 pixels high but only 6. You just have to change the value of the CRTC register 4 (&2B to &2C).

For "Shadows of Sergoth [2020]" you need to add 576k memory and he run perfectly. No more screen corruption.

Hi, Burnin' Rubber also has issues, its a 6128+ game. It used to work on v1.10.2 but was broken by the next release v1.10.3
so I think somewhere between March and April 2022?
The games Graphics are a little scrambled, I have shots of the title screen but it happens in game too with the car too far to the right of the screen and also scrambled.
Before (v1.10.2)

After (v1.10.3)

You are using the core on 16bits mode, change option to 24bits.
