MW-520 Hardware issue?

Post by fchrist16 »

So here's a question for you MW-geeks like me.

My MW-520 running 98SE won't start up with the 98SE HD but just fine with a 95 HD. Any ideas as to why it does that? Mind you the 98SE started up just fine for quite a while though.

Regards,

Anyone? This is killing the whole car setup quickly.

How did you install 98SE? My guess is however you did it, it didn't write the correct boot information (such as installing OS on one computer, and putting that HD into another comptuer afterwords..Microsoft doesn't like that).

Turns out the video cable was bad. Now I have a 98SE machine that doesn't have a battery that works...I figured it was the battery, wrong.

As far as installing it, the computer came that way...
