I don't know much about the model numbers of these chips I'm afraid, but from what you've already found out, it looks like it isn't in the ``works for'' list :-/ > Sorry again for my mistakes, and thank you very much. > > Bao I've re-subjected this message in the hope that someone more knowledgeable than me can comment.
