If the above suggestion doesn't work out, you may want to take a look at Frank Gruendel's MP130 page:

http://www.pda-soft.de/130_disassemble.html

...which gives step-by-step instructions on how to see whether a given MP130 is truly "...dead, Jim" or "just resting" before you undertake the disassembly process.

His MP130 fixes page:

http://www.pda-soft.de/mp130fixes.html

...might also be something a new MP130 owner will find worth checking out before they hang their head in despair.

(Apologies if you've seen those pages before.)



Best,

James Fraser
