Hi MPC Heads,
Need some help with a decision i faced with.,
Have just bought a MPC2Kxl a couple of weeks ago, with a floppy drive. in perfect working condition.
I went straight ahead and ordered a Multi Card Reader Flash Drive Kit from mpcstuff.
When it arrived, i jumped straight in and update the OS
from something really early to 1.20.
It went throughout its process of updating and asked me to press any button!
then it went to "loadingMPC2000xl and froze for hours.
I turned it off and on again!
Now it asks me to "inset MPC2000xl disk" (common problem i read!)
Ive tried a fresh formatted floppy with a fresh OS on it, both 1.14 and 1.20
but it will not boot from the floppy
Im pretty shore my Flash rom is corrupt from the update!
and now i need a boot eprom chip from vstservice.
