Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000
By possvm Fri Dec 29, 2017 12:44 am
Hello. After coming home from college and not using my MPC 2000 Classic for months, I turned it on and was not able to get the zip drive working (Iomega Zip 250). It had worked fine before. I have tried several times to use it and I keep getting "SCSI Not ready !!" Is this a blown fuse? Thank you for any help.

might be! Here's one way to tell for sure.
Turn everything off
disconnect the scsi cable
boot the mpc from floppy
go to DISK menus
as you select SCSI options, if it freezes that means the fuse is blown

Okay, I just tried that and it froze. Do you know where I can order a spare fuse? Is there a specific model number? Thanks.
