[Dead] Kip Help

[Guest]

The other night we had a huge storm blow through, I got caught on the unawares as this was supposed to miss us.. That said.... My Kip 3001 has a read error, tmr/unattendedstatus and trimer read error.

Job: tmr Unattended Stauts
D:\monpath\Logdir\StatInfor\KIPunattend.DAT
Current Routine: tmr Unattened Status
Error Place 23
it also has another pop up

Condition 52: Bad file name or number
Timer Check for Paper

on teh front of the machine under a small plastic cover is an lED read out.. that correctly identifies the loaded paper... odd thing is that even though it has cycl buttons (up and down arrows) and a menu button.. when I try to go through it, it remains unchanged... no other display appears

okay looks like I got a portion repaired and messed up some more...
I used the factory restore embedded in the program.. but still got the monpath error,..
Through some research it looked like a job i had queued was lopping causing the problems.. deleted all the stuff in the temp files..
but had an issue with the kip programing on the C drive messing up.. copied identical info from the D in to C and the error codes went away and kip.ini was able to load
the problem I am facing now is inputing all the codes (6) for the added portions.. the scanner, networking , color mode, etc..
I go into the menu and select new number.. I set it.. it shows ok.. then verifying code.. no error... but no check mark verifying acceptance.. and nothing is actually functioning

I hate to say but in service mode there is an option to reimage the hard drive from a backup. It may need this then reload the keys for the options.

Re: Kip Help

Ok, I know it's an old thread but it's new to me.

I did end up ghosting the PC successfully on the Kip7000, and to my great surprise it actually worked when I was done. Just so you don't have to struggle as much as I did, I'd like to give a few recommendations:

1) Bring a USB CDROM player, a USB keyboard, and the appropriate Restore Disk. It's really hard to do without these items.
2) Insert the restore disk into your player, and plug in the peripherals.
3) Power On, When the Bios screen comes up tap F12 (that's why you have the keyboard).
4) Select Boot from USB-CDROM, then Enter
5) When you see the phrase at the bottom "Press any key to continue ... " go ahead and press any key. You have about one second to do so.
6) then be really patient.
7) After about an hour you will get to the Kip Installation screen. Go through the installation, including the Key Codes (you might have to get those from Kip).

It must have re-booted 6 or 7 times. Each time I began to sweat profusely. =^..^=
