Dear Mp friends,

After removing my cardreader and replacing the Vailixi chips for normal 3.11 my 3000 is back in it's original state. These are the original 3.11 chips it came with and the floppy drive i once removed. Now she seems to have a problem when booting.

On boot, everything seems normal untill the message ''Searching SCSI for hard disk'' comes up. It's been there for 50 minutes now, It's stuck.
None of the buttons seem to work either. Hit soft key 4 to cancel searching does not work.

Any Ideas?

In case anyone wonders why the hell I'm brining her back to her original state.
She's ugly and I bought a new one wich I will update

The SCSI Fuse is blown on your MPC. It's located at F901. Your card reader was probably supplying termination power so it allowed the MPC to proceed during boot.
