Harold,

check all the jumpers on your Z80 board again against  Gary's picture which 
agrees with my setup except for one jumper (JP9 which is a NC pin on both 
the 27C64 and 28C64 anyway)

the key jumpers to check are JP8 should be 1-2, P39 should be 7-8 (yours is 
3-4), there should be 4 jumpers across P8 to P10 (I cant see these on your 
picture)
also P2 should be jumpered 3-4 (yours looks like 5-6)

if this doesn't work would you be able to get a sharper picture uploaded.

regards

David Fry
