Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000
By Dahoyt Fri Jul 31, 2009 5:37 am
Was about to use my 2000xl the other and when i went to load the files off of my 1gb compactflash card it said "Not Ready!!!" Thinking back to when I had a sega genisus and use to have to blow on the games to get it to work I took it out and blew on it and tried again and it did not work, so i went to a 1gb SD card i had lying around and that one worked, I then took the CF card and tried it in my PC's card reader and it worked. It use to work perfectally on my mpc so i dont know what the problem is you think if the CF card reader on the mpc didnt work that the SD shouldnt work either. I looked through the manual about 4 times and couldnt find anything on it. Help would be greatly appriciated
