Title: Re: Got my EDP fixed

I'm glad it was something obvious, but out of all the removable parts inside, the big 68-pin devices are the least-likely to come out of their sockets, so this is quite strange. Make sure your friend did the other things we mentioned; re-seat the EPROMS, clean the memory etc. as this loose CPU may not have been the initial fault; it could have been dislodged when you thumped it and just be a red herring.

Finally got someone to open up my EDP, and indeed there was a loose chip -- it was one of the CPU chips, I believe.  So hopefully it's clear sailing from here.  Thanks again Andy and others for your quick advice.
