[Coco] Problem w/MultiPak and Coco 3

[Camillus Blockx]

Hi, Bill,

I will put your chips in sockets if you want me to, I have good skills to do so.
The thing is that , for not putting to much heat stress on the board, the chips need to be cut, and that means also replaced.
I can make pcb with the pulled chips and put them back in the coco, but that goes oly for thr pia's.
I woud not recomend that for the cpu. Let me know if you need me...

Bill,

A little more info since I;m not typing on my phone...

As I asked earlier, does the CoCo work properly with any other cart
plugged in, like a game cart or floppy controller - and if a floppy
controller, do the drives function properly. Usually, in my experience,
with just a green screen from an MPI it's been a dirty cartridge port or
contacts on the MPI.
