Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

Well, I just opened the machine up and pressed all the connections 
and chips to make sure they were seated properly, and I think a 
couple of them were half in or something, because now the unit is 
working perfectly!  I am hoping this is not going to be a recurring 
kind of thing.  OS 2.0 seems very stable, as I just played with this 
thing for like 15 min. with nary a crash.  Anyhoo, I will knock on 
wood about this one and count myself lucky for the moment, barring 
any major issues in the future.  For now I am going ot content myself 
with thinking that everything is fixed :)  Does anyone have any ideas 
on keeping the connections tight within the machine?  buying new 
cables, etc?  I would love to hear any solutions.

Thanks for all the help again, everyone.  It seems (at least for now)
it made the difference between my owning the xl-7 versus some other, 
much less-capable machine :)
