CR Problem

Hi!

after 3 years of beatmaking with no saving (and starting every session from scratch), i finally decided to upgrade my mpc 2000xl. so i bought a card reader (this one: http://www.ebay.de/itm/AKAI-MPC-2000-XL ... 231a916658), unplugged the floppy drive and installed the card reader. when i turn on on the mpc it says "wait..." for about 2 seconds, then: "no floppy device". i tried that many times, but no luck. before that i installed OS 1.2 with my floppy drive.
ok after all that i resigned and wanted to install the floppy drive again, but didnt work either! its like a curse......can anyone help me with this?

You need to turn on the mpc with the card inserted, also your card should be SanDisk brand of max 1GB

Yes Card has to be in when powering on.
Card size doesn't matter, I have the same cardreader and could use a transcend 2 Giga, Sandisk 4 and 8 Giga. all 3 works. the will just be formatted as 1 giga.
I had the same issue, no floppy device error. I changed the IDE cable and now everything works.
Maybe your cables are a bit loose.
I don't remember the jumper settings tho, as I'm not in front of the mpc now.

thanks for quick reply...........i tried it many times with inserted card (CnMemory Gold Compact Flash 1024mb). no success.
i will try it with another IDE cable.......but the guy who gave me the cable took that IDE cable from a working unit with cardreader..........we'll see.
what do you mean with "jumper settings"?

Kick the uncle buck out of that m'****! then check the cables then do what sir yellow font said.
