I see. In fact I see now on the circuit diagram that the processor & motherboard R/W pins are not connected together, I didn't notice that yesterday. Sorry about that Bugman, I'm glad I didn't send...

Ah yes, that would be a Bad Thing. That's the Read/Write line from the CPU. I don't see anything on the circuit diagram that's not meant to pass through to the motherboard.
