[QUOTE="richardp, post: 372219, member: 175253"] Just replying to my own thread, i've managed to sort out my problem as described above and my DB is back to normal again but for the sake of anyone else who has the same prob it was the case of fitting on the main board of the DB a block of 16 pins in the right place (see Duolabs site) then with the aid of a cas 2 interface +addon unit and the appropriate software and bootloader bin file it's simply the matter of pressing a few buttons on the computer screen and hey presto my DB was back in boot mode again but i still had to dreamup an image aferwards using a null modem cable, i was lucky enough to know someone who has this equipment. Another point to make was that i didn't solder the pinblock onto the board i simply drilled tiny holes in the soldered over holes of the board which allowed the pinblock to sit down firmly into the board, i'm not actually recommending this method as soldering is the prefered method but it did work for me and is far less tricky. It may all seem a bit scarey but the hardest part is fixing in the pinblock the rest is quite simple computing. I'm more than happy to elaborate futher if anyone needs help in this area. Thanks guy's for your reply's. Estatic Rich. [/QUOTE]
