I don't think there is any special instructions for an Australian 
procedure. Just pull out the LC040 (maybe use a "chip puller" [can be 
purchased at local electronics store] and make sure you are grounded), and 
carefully push the new '040 in.

Make sure that you note the orientation of the old chip in the socket and 
place the new one in the same manner.

Good luck,
Ray

Bingo - I can see the chip from here... XC68LC040RC25B - so what's this 
about doing a brain transplant to a real '040?? I'm in Australia so any 
localised advice would be much appreciated.

Yes, it's in a socket. So maybe a brain transplant wouldn't be too hard 
even for a beginner like me.
