You'll have to report in and let us know what you do get out of it. I'm real curious about that chip now.

Tried two different PSUs but same issue spinup but no boot (if you get my meaning) even after a CMOS reset

Wait till I upload the pic of the protection mat!
Sorry to hear that Emu. It was in the name of science though.....Much like benching is.

I'll be interested in your pics. Did it burn a pin like the one in other thread?

Good to hear you have another on the way though. The test must go on.
