My Atmos is currently with Mutant Caterpillar for repair. I'll report back on the service once it is repaired.

Thanks for your feedback , professional repairers are thin on the ground for. ORICS I think it nice to know your Oric can be repaired instead of being thrown out !

Update. So it has been repaired. Apparently, it was a motherboard quality issue. No component needed replacing but careful soldering was required. Ian socketed the important chips, just in case.
