Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000
By sound_perfect Thu Mar 16, 2006 12:29 am
Hi guys, I have installed a CF drive in my MPC2000XL, and i upgrade the OS to the version 1.2 but I cannot find the ATAPI device: when i press the "Load key" or "save Key"

MPC only recognizes Floppy, SCSI (7) and Flash Rom.

What must I do??? How do I install the CF drive???

Thanks...from Spain

am going throung the same problem myself, istalled a scsi flash card reader in my mpc & it keeps coming up with scsi not ready!

kinda puts ur productivity with the mpc 2 a grinding halt :(

i read in some of the other threads bout installing a flash card reader that sometimes you need 2 update the firmware on the reader, im about 2 try that myself but it involves putting a scsi slot in my computer, taking the cf drive outta my mpc, hooking it up 2 the computer, trying 2 install the firmware, then putting it back in my mpc..... wot a fukaround!!

would be interested 2 hear any other things ppl have done 2 fix problems installing the flash card reader

will let u know how i go doing that, am planning on trying it 2moz

Make sure the jumpers on the reader are in slave mode.

After you turn on you're MPC go into the Load Screen and you have it on where youcan choose Devices turn you're the dial to you're left and it should be right there.
