Title: Emu IIIXP Boot up... SCSI 2... SCSI 2... SCSI 2... SCSI 2... Post by: MCR on December 14, 2013, 08:12:01 AM Hi,
My XP's getting stuck on boot up, goes through the checks, gets stuck on SCSI 2. Goes round again, SCSI 2, etc etc. None of the panel controls make a difference. Does this whether the OS floppy is in or out - is this what I think it is? OS floppy death? Thoughts? Mark. Title: Re: Emu IIIXP Boot up... SCSI 2... SCSI 2... SCSI 2... SCSI 2... Post by: edude on December 17, 2013, 08:53:43 AM this happened to me then after a few months i realized the floppy power cable was not making a solid connection so i re-seated it and it was fine. if this doesn't work you can try a pc floppy drive using http://eiiiforum.com/index.php?topic=73.msg405#msg405

Can't wait to get back & try this out! I've never taken my IIXP apart before, any tips on how to do it without damaging anything? Cheers... Mark Title: Re: Emu IIIXP Boot up... SCSI 2... SCSI 2...

also take note of the polarity of the cable attached to the audio board if you remove it :o mark(us) Title: Re: Emu IIIXP Boot up... SCSI 2... SCSI 2... SCSI 2... SCSI 2...
