Not sure what's going on here.. I bought my MPC second hand the other day from a guy on ebay.

Since then I've put in a 60gb HDD and upgraded the ram with a Samsung chip.

Basically it's all been working fine until I hooked up my deck to do some sampling.

About 5 seconds after going into record mode my MPC just outputs high levels of white noise. The record meters are still hitting 0..

Then if I go out of record mode and back to the main screen, if I trigger any samples they are just white noise, but I can hear the tail end of the sample drift off (albeit very distorted)...

----

Just paused writing this for a sec and started playing around... Managed to do a bit of sampling from my deck before it shocked me with some more levels of white noise.. Then went back to the main screen, went to program and I've got a crash screen 'Illegal general instruction exception'.. and what looks like a memory dump report.

Any ideas guys?

This happened to anyone else before?

took the ram out and it seems to be fine now.. although 16mb isn't enough to do jack shit..

Did you try putting back in the ram? I wonder if the ram is faulty or if that was just coincidental
