Thanks,
Yes it is the motherboard end, I tried Maplin, only do 16pin. Farnell have
the part, but minimum order is £20 with £3 handling charge.
Anyone has any ideas where you can get hold off one-off orders for these
kind of parts. Maplin seem to be removing a lot of components from their
catalogue,
Regards,
Paul.
