Caps are rulled out I think. I have tried 1uf 50V, 10uf 50V, 10uf
35V, and 10uf 24volt. If I put the darn things in backwards, I
would have had to do it the same backwards way 5 times in a row.
Although, that is entirely possible for me :-(
I have posted a layout in the files section. It's a very small
circuit board with only a couple components on it.
files - chris-lcd IOinterfaceunit.pdf.
I am 99% sure it is something obviously stupid, I am just too stupid
to see it :-)

Any ideas? Any chance I have the wrong type of CAPS?
Chris: I have NO business responding to this inquiry as I have
NO idea what
your circuit is or looks like, BUT I would assume if it's the
caps, the
problem would "move" with the caps. Have you tried TESTING
them? Set your DVM
on the LO-ohm range and test a known-good cap with the probes ONE
way, then
SWAPPED, and note the changes in the reading. Then see if the
changes are
similar for the suspect cap. Better: Use a cap. tester! A
SHORTED cap, or OPEN
cap would probably be causing your problem! JRR
