On my (very early) 1000, grounding the PALs wasn't enough. Replacing them and grounding them did the job. Since grounding the PALs is quick and easy (shouldn't take a tech more than 10 minutes), try that first. If it clears up your problems, that's enough. (If you don't have any problems, don't bother.) - ranjit "Trespassers w" ranjit@eniac.seas.upenn.edu mailrus!eecae!netnews!eniac!... Forward in all directions!
