Hello All,
Since this is the CT60 support forum, I will describe my problem to you all and hopefully,
between all of you and your experience/wisdom with the Falcon/CT60, the solution to my
problem will be found.
Let me start by saying that once in awhile, by Falcon will actually boot, and
then allow rebooting a few times. However, much more often than not, this does not happen.
Okay, my problem. I start my Falcon, the Falcon and CT60 both get power, but my fdd does
not get checked (no light), and the hdd does not spin up. All I get on the monitor is a white
blank screen. Even if I re-boot, completely power down then power up the Falcon/CT60...nada, zip,
nothing but a white blank screen.
As I noted earlier, once in a awhile, everything works. Falcon/CT60 boot, the on-screen display
of the CT60 info, memory count, hdd check....oh!!! What a beatiful sight!!!! Then, if I am lucky,
I can reboot and see all that again!!!!! But more often then not, I'll reboot and get the white
screen.
And what's really frustrating, I can't even get the hdd prepped because I can't reboot!! If I had
any hair left, I would be pulling it out!! :|
I know I could send it to Rodolphe and more than likely he will be able to fix it but, given the
cost of the shipping alone (I live in the U.S.A.), not to mention the distance of the round trip for
Falcon mb/CT60, I have decided to leave that as the ultimate last resort.
So, I hope between all of you, you will recognize what is causing the problem, and know what the fix
is.
Thanks to each and every one of you!!!
