[Coco] 24Pin to 28Pin EPROM Adapter PCB for sale

[Chad H]

I still had the extra socket Cloud-9 included in case a socket needed to be installed in the motherboard so I tried this...It works for the CPU but now the keyboard wont seat on the posts and allow the case to go back on right.

Unfortunately, I could not view the link you provided…

My initial suggestion would be to insert another high quality 40 pin socket in between the ProTector+ and the socket on the motherboard.  That should raise the ProTector+ up enough to clear any adjacent ICs.

The ProTector+ is sitting on top of the IC chip immediately to the left of the CPU and will not full seat.  This results in tension that, over a short period of time, caused the ProTector+ to come unseated enough to crash the computer.  How do we fix this sir?  (See here..)
