How many of you remember the problem of chips coming unseated in older
computers (like the PET) and having to push all the chips down as the
equipment ages?
I've now got this problem with my Kurzweil MIDIBOARD (a 6502-based MIDI
keyboard controller). A few months ago I had to open it and reseat all
the chips. Now I have to do it again.
Does anyone know any tricks to keep this problem from occuring? I fear
I'm going to have to do this a lot now, especially with the vibrations
of playing the keys.
Thanks for any tips.
