Hey Steve,
It's the latest OS on a Vintage Pro. Just seems to be a bad expansion chip. I was just wondering if anyone had some magic tricks to try and bring them back to life. I read one archive message where someone mentioned using an eraser on the gold connectors at the bottom of the ROM. Well, that didn't work... :)

The ROM board looks perfectly clean and the gold connectors at the bottom of the chip look fine to me, but it is simply not recognized in any expansion slot. I went into diagnostics mode and all I get is "ROM board not found" when I try to test it. All other boards work fine, and I tried this one in different slots, etc, always with the same result so it's clearly not the fault of the synthesizer.
