Booting Problem

Post by Bill Komotini »

Hi everyone!
For a week now I expirience an unusuall problem with my pa1xpro. I turn it on and after loading the os, it freezes before loading the factory resources.
It doesn't freeze every time, but 8 to 10 times it does.
I tried with a new-fresh copy of the latest os+intro1 but the same thing happens.
Any suggestions?
Best Regards
Bill

Personally I would do this first to eliminate any possibility of corruption:-
  • re-download the OS update and resources,
    install onto new formatted diskettes,
    re-install everything using the "INTRO-1" approach
I wouldn't assume that the OS is OK at this stage - definitely worth a full re-load.

What version OS?

Hi Pete,
The os i use is the latest 3.01. I tried with a fresh copy of os, fresh disks, but still nothing.... Power off and reboot- still crashes on the loading screen with no message. Not even the dialog window, just the image of the pa1xpro...
Best Regards

After many many attempts (about 20 times) of installing the OS it finally worked...
Up to now it haven't crashed yet. I hope it stays that way!!!
Best Regards

Unfortunately, the same thing is happening... Anyone knows what else than os can go wrong to make this problem appear? Any hardwear issues?
Anyone!!!
