I had two bad tact switches (up and down cursor keys) so I replaced them today. After replacing one I turned on the unit and tested and it worked fine, but when i replaced the second one the unit turns on to "MPC 1000 Boot Block. Boot on SODIMM Memory check mode". It does 4 passes and my unit passes each one and after all the passes the mpc boots normally like it should and nothing is wrong. But it does Boot Block every time i turn it on which is annoying. I'm relieved that the mpc still functions but I'm wondering why it boots to boot block??? did I bump something while unplugging the board?? I reseated all the ribbon cables that connect to the board and checked for any shorts or broken traces. I also reseated and tried different ram. Any help is appreciated thanks
