Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000
By editcompobrain Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:01 pm
hi man
I have an MPC 2000XL. I bought this IDE (NOT-SWAPP.)FLASH MEMORY READER does not work http://www.addonics.com/products/flash_memory_reader/adidesd.asp .

I replaced the old floppy drive with the new reader but when I turn the Akai, the display lights up but do not read anything. I checked the connections but everything seems perfect!

I have the flat cable is 40 pin.
The power cable (two wires, one black and one red) I've recovered from the floppy drive that I removed.
What could be the problem?
LOOK: I connected this way, so as to let you see
