Illusion 120 upgrade problem

[glenhirst]

hi there,

Recently started at new theatre and have just tried to upgrade our Illusion 120 to version 7. Got a error message:

 

Checksum Incorrect

Desk ID 3 is invalid

System terminated

 

Now this desk won`t boot up, just asks for an upgrade disk and when I put that in and boot again I get back to the system terminated stage. Any ideas? Bios version is 2.5.2. Maybe there was an earlier update that I needed to do first?

 

thanks,

glen.

Have a look at THIS TOPIC.

 

Also it would be useful if you could tell us the desk serial number, and what version of software it was previously running if possible.

 

edit: fixed link

[glenhirst]

serial number is 0034001 xxxxxxxx

 

i think the software version was 2.something

 

had seen that other post, but short of installing a new floppy drive, I have tried everything there.

 

 

 

Success! After installing new floppy drive, same thing, but then finally tried different floppy disk and all is well. Should have tried the most obvious thing first!

 

 

Moderation: serial number removed.
