Title: EIIIXP Repair in the Dallas /Fort Worth area? Post by: tmenikos on August 13, 2017, 05:20:16 AM I love my EIIIxp rack, but I have not used it for a long while as I am not a Keyboardist, but I keep this for the occasional use.
I tried running it and it wont recognize the internal hard drive any longer. It may be dead. It will still boot from the floppy and it reads the extenal CD-ROM. I am not an electronics guy... so if there is a place I can send it to have it looked over and fixed...updated etc I would love that. Obviously I am open to shipping it elsewhere but shipping damage is a little bit of a concern. Thanks for any help. Title: Re: EIIIXP Repair in the Dallas /Fort Worth area?

Not a big problem, just buy a scsi2sd v5 drive and replace the HD. Title: Re: EIIIXP Repair in the Dallas /Fort Worth area? Post by: tmenikos on August 14, 2017, 02:00:26 AM sounds easy enough.
Is there anything like formatting to do? I do have the manuals some where... LOL Any... not being a computer kind of guy... and particularly with the older equipment that is more Mac Based... I just don't know what all to do in prep for... or after installation of the new drive. |
