What I can do is tell you where you can get a replacement SIMM Socket. Be warned, these sockets are extremely hard to remove so make sure you can do it first. Order them from: Digi-Key Corp 1-800-344-4539 There are a couple versions so you'll have to explain to sales which ones you need. The most expensive gold plated one is $11.71 each so the others are less. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Harold Wong (213) 825-9040 UCLA-Mathnet; 3915F MSA; 405 Hilgard Ave.; Los Angeles, CA 90024-1555 ARPA: hgw@math.ucla.edu BITNET: hgw%math.ucla.edu@INTERBIT
