Hi!
Have You tried to GENTLY press the EPROM (socketed) on the circuitboard under the keys into place?
Also, the pins that board is mounted on might need cleaning? (You probably already did so :)
And the obvious: Are any of the fuses on the VFX powerboard blown??

Thanks for all your suggestions so far, especially Steve.
Here's how I stand at the moment....
All keys replaced after checking all the circuitry beneath them.
(Soldered over the connecting ribbon joints to make sure and cleaned
the board surface of crud and dust)
Still the same message - calibration error. After pressing
re-calibrate about 6 or 7 times I get the keyboard not
found/recognised message.
** If I press 'ignore' (to get the patches displayed) and then do the
're-initialize' function - it all goes dark, permanently, with disc
drive light flashing once every 5 seconds or so, until I switch it off.
Powering back up starts the whole thing over...
Should I just give up..?
Thanks,
Tom
