Bad Flashes?

New MessageBad Flashes? (modified 0 times) carnagecjb

Ok, I finally got my HD, cable, and all necessary adapters. Formatted & sys'ed the HD, put it in, booted it up, and keep getting the error message "DiskOnChip has Bad Flashes" Any suggestions? Worst case, I can always use the thing as a regular computer, but having the DOC working would be kinda nice....

Can you get to a c:\ from the drive? if so, try running the dformat command on the d: drive (DOC).... if that works, you should be ready to install something to the DOC...

Tried that, couldn't get it to work. I'm not at home ATM, so I can't post the exact error message. I should probably have been more clear in my first post. I can't boot off of the DOC at all, and can boot off the HD fine, with no error messages. I only get the error when I try and do anything with the DOC.

didja mformat d: before putmimg?
(or dformat d:, depending on which version of the doc utils youy got)
Also there are 2 images floating around the net, one is bad.
And ya, having the DOC work is pretty sweet.
I'm a sig virus. Put me in yours.

There's more than one version? The version I tried has dformat. It won't detect the DOC. :P Think it may be a matter of needing a different version of the utils? If so, where can I get the other version? Mine came straight from the manf. website....
