What version do you have? I have 3.0 and 2.1 on my home server.
I can give you a link if you want to download and burn.

I started to do the re-install but decided I'd try the diagnostics disk first. I put it in and powered the unit off/on but the display just stayed black except 1 line of text accross the top. is there some procedure to running diagnostics?

[Synthohol]

I thought it gets run in the OS through the FACI or remote desktop.

[texascopy1]

Yeah I thought it should be pretty straight forward. Loaded the disk shows a penguin or something with a pdf ext. click on that and it just hangs up on acrobat for a while. when I cold boot with it in it really doesn't do anything. As much as I hate to I think Ime going to do a re-install. Is there a file I can look in to see if a image copy is on the hard drive that you know of?

[Synthohol]

You will spend more time trying to diagnose than a reflash.
Best bet just run the 2 disks should take less tham an hour then 10 min configuring the network and settings.
I just dont want to see you put a bandaid on a broken arm.

I agree! I'm going to replace the hd in the morning, I think it might be bad. Also found dvd unit isn't reading good, that's why I couldn't run the diagnostics. Just waiting to see what I run into next. thanks for the software and input. I'll put a final post tomorrow.

[Synthohol]

Good luck. Hope it all works out!
