Ohhhhh.... very sorry to hear this is a real issue and not "my issue". I also noticed the keyboard not resting properly on top o the Twister board. It pushes the board down and makes the socket contacts to elevate from one side and make partial contact with the PLCC68 cpu socket. Replacing the motherboard cpu socket is really bad idea..... did it finally worked?

I'm also having data corruption problems using the IDE interface. Will post details in another post, if desired. So far this prevents me from using this board.

Once a lower socket is fitted, everything goes back to normal and the clearance is OK.

Never had corruption issues with the TwiSTEr nor other IDE interfaces on my STE.
