I don't know why.  it used to work... I think my mind is going.  I have no
memory or removing it.  Anyway, I need another one.  The board is marked
74166.

Can I put any shift register IC with a similar part no, like this one:

74166PC | FAIRCHILD | IC DIP-16 Shift Register (icompplus.com)


in there, or ?

Thanks,

I have a mobo that has that very part (Fairchild 74166PC), so it's a 
good bet it'll work.
