ps1 backups work so chip has power and is working

ps1 needs power ground scex to boot (needs others to initalise chip when first installed)

ps2 is what takes into account all the other connections

new v7 boots dvdr films so its not the laser

check recheck for bridges and solder balls

the track would been drilled he bought it from us

check the actel chip legs for bridging (2 pins to grd and 2 pins to A should be bridged) but no others

any chance of a picture of the install?,as close much detail as possible
