Thanks for all your advice....I've got my plan together....

        What I've done thus far...

        1) Study the schematics
        2) applied only +5 volts to the board, isolated DMAGO (vector state
machine)
        3) Saw a lovely watchdog bark! (woo hoo - signs of life!)
        4) Pulled ROMS (version 2) and checksummed them :

                Rom B1 checks to B2A4 - Appears wrong.
                Rom F1 checks to 0000 - Language chip ? (where are the
vectorlist archives when you need them!)
                
                All others check to the proper values.

So, I will burn up a new B1 (2716) and go from there!

F1 is the language chip right? (trying to remember Clays post of last week)
Maybe I should burn me a new one of those to be sure.

Mike
