Hey,
so I opened up my MPC 2000xl the other day to fix my 8 outs, which I got to work (By unplugging and replugging the ribbon cable). The thing is, now out of nowhere, sometimes when I start my MPC 2000xl, it gets stuck on the loading/waiting screen. When I unscrew the back panel, unplug and replug the ribbon cable for the 8 outs, it works again (sometimes, or it takes a really long time to load)
There's another issue that started since I got my 8 outs to work. Out of nowhere when I'm playing with my MPC, all the pads that have sounds start to make some weird buzzing/cracking/whistling sounds that don't resemble the sample at all (just really anoying sounds/ I'm thinking I might have something to do with something I touched because it started after I opened the back panel last week). When I close the MPC, the sound is fixed for a while (or it gets stuck on waiting screen and I have to unplug/replug 8 outs ribbon cable).
This time, the 8 outs unplugging and replugging didn't work (to get passed the wait screen), so I left it unplugged and unplugged/replugged my zip reader's ribbon cable. Now it would open but it says that No Floppy Device when I try to load. (I saw other similar posts but it's with people who have a CF card reader). I have the 1.2 os installed, and the zip disk reader lights up and makes noise when I insert a disk so it should be properly connected I guess. I just don't get the ATAPI option when I go in the load/setup screen.
What can I try? thanks
If anyone has an idea of what I can try, please help
