I took my mpc1k apart to put in new pads and I can't figure out where this one screw came from or goes back to! It's flat while the rest are rounded and I think it had this washer with it because it's the only one I found.

It doesn't look like the type of screw that would need a washer... so you've got a hole missing a screw and a screw missing a washer.

I took mine apart the other day as the back panel kept giving me electric shocks.
I didn't go near the pads though but the only washer I remember coming across was the grounding for the earth behind the back panel. I'm guessing you didn't need to take that off though.

The flat one confused me too.. I concluded it must have come from the front panel next to the memory card slot, the holes sunken in so that screw sits flush with the panel.

I ended up with 2 screws and no holes :? :lol:

on my MPC1k that's the screw that goes on the front of the MPC (the part of the faceplate through which the CF card is inserted)

Actually, let me change what I said, You're right the SCREW is on the front face plate where the CF card goes. The washer is where I said it was on my previous post

On another note, why didnt you pay more attention to where everything came from or at least place the screws on a table in the orientation they came out.

Thanks all! Under the front face plate I had actually forgotten both screws :lol: , but I found the missing one.

Haha, I always have problems with extra screws, so as soon as I had two out I realized I better set it up so that didn't happen. And it woulda worked too if wasn't for my darn cat! :roll: He decided to come over and mess with them. I had to run to throw all the screws into a container. :lol:

I opened the MPC up to put in new pads, but I was waiting on a CF HD replacement as well before I sealed it back up. By the time I put it back together....Anyway, best laid plans an' all that.

Thanks again!
