Steve,
Even if you don't have the product on service contract. Your local DEC Field
Service group should be able to sell you a replacement module on a "materials"
basis (the way they handle non-contracted Field repairs is "Time & Materials"
for costing). Try that. If it fails, let me know.
I hope this helps you out.
Thanx,
AJ
ps. I don't think a chip level replacement will work, unless you can do a
better isolation than the diagnostics currently provide.
