Yeah thats the conclusion i'm coming to, i have just plugged in my TF534, i know it uses different cpld's but was able to read, erase and reprogram them without issue. I'll try reflowing the cpld on the TF536 (got nothing to lose) but if not i'll have to order a replacement and try again

Cpld replaced (AliExpress so could be a fake) and so far so good, TF card flashed with the pi and boots to kickstart screen so I'll see how I get on with workbench next

Workbench working well for a good 30 minutes so I'm happy it seems to be ok

FA cup final time now though.

Thanks all for the replies, we got there in the end
