That is the easiest way to do it. Thank you

Ha, I missed this thread. Would you believe I've been recording a video about doing just this! :D

Headers replacement on the motherboard, 32 pin eeproms, splitting and programming.

I've lost one scene which I need to reshoot, else it'd have been up this weekend. Typical! :lol:

Anyway, to add to the pool of resources, here's the little Python script I wrote for the video. Will work on anything that speaks Python 3.

Glad it's up and firing now.
