Thanks Noel,

Yes, I tried to repair an 11/34 once after somebody plugged a peripheral
board into a memory slot - I was doing well after 3 or 4 chip chnages,
it started to come to life, until I found the 20V went right into an
d=address line of an in-house numbered ROM!

Having been warned by angels I will take another route!

cheers,

Nigel
