Looking for a Trump Card

I'm urgently searching for a Trump Card.

During all my work of restoring QL SW (for preservation) my Trump Card deceased.

I don't know why but seems like that.

So If someone have a Trump Card to sell please contact me, is very urgent for me.

Best regards.

Sincerely.

It is probably easier to fix the trump card - the main danger if you have been removing and plugging the Trump Card back in is that you have bent a pin in the QL's expansion connector - these can normally be straightened with care, but it's a real pain if you break off a pin!

Other than that, it is probably a RAM chip in the Trump Card

Weel it faults when I was using it.

So is strange that is have got problems of PIN but I will check.

Is easier to find the Ram Chip?

Thanks Rich.

Can you repair it?

No, but Derek Stewart on here has repaired them in the past for me - as all the RAM chips are normally socketed the best way is to remove them and test them one by one...
