uh oh-blown scsi fuse!!!!!!

i have a question how do u know if scsi fuse is blown! i ordered a 100mb zip drive thru e-mail and i think i was burned because i get no response from it! how long does it take for it to boot up normally and how do you know if scsi is blown maybe im worried to much! but it may just be the drive! u hear the zip engine running for 5 secs and stops but no clicks ! is it dead!!!!!!!!!

what are the settings of the scsi ID and terminator on the back of the zip drive ?
Dit you first power up the zip driven and then the MPC ?

yeah i did those steps and when i tried to load sounds from zip drive i got screen"scsi not ready! the scsi would show no sighns of life it would run then shut off for abt a hr and then it would juist shut off without setting its self up! so i believe its not he fuse!

nah, its not the fuse if its saying SCSI isnt ready, cause it wouldnt even read at all

rey turning off everything, disconnecting it all, flipping the switches, then hooking it back up.

I thought I had a dead zip, but I just unhooked it, flipped the two switches back and forth, hooked it back up, and it worked fine. If that doesn't help, try hooking up the zip drive to something else (a PC) and see if it works.

BTW, if you format the Zip Disk on the MPC, a PC won't be able to read it, so keep this in mind when troubleshooting.

mpc should be off when scsi cord is being hooked up, turn on drive then mpc
