Demo loop plays through a random number of times and then hangs at different parts of the demo. It doesn't hang on SNES_20190609.rbf
Hangs on SNES_20190719.rbf
Those are the only releases I tested Super Castlevania IV on.

Let me know if you need more info or if this is the wrong place to post. Thanks!

Hmm, just let my MiSTer loop for about 4 loops and didn't see anything off. Do you mean it freezes entirely when you say hang? or something else?

It freezes at a frame at different points. It's very random, it could happen in 30 minutes or even an hour. The MiSTer menu is still responsive so I can reset or reboot when the game video freezes. I leave my MiSTer on 24/7 and just have it play a demo loop when I'm not using it. Super Metroid is usually what I have loop but recently switched it up with Super Castlevania IV.

Running for 2 hours now, didn't freeze yet.
This may have many factors, and almost impossible to debug if it's not consistently reproduceable.

Yeah, mine finally froze just now after 2 hours and 20 minutes. haha Kinda hard to work with that. If there is anything I can do over ssh or something to get any data for you? I'll leave the MiSTer at the freezed screen. Other than that, sorry for the bug report, I didn't think it would take that long to glitch. haha

Okay, I'm running Super Castlevania IV intro from 9:30 till now 19:30, that's 10 hours straight,, no freeze.
I think the problem is on your side @nocmonkey , maybe the sdram module?

I was thinking the same thing last night. I'll order a replacement sdram module and give it a shot. Thanks!
