Issues with an SP808

Post by Riddim »

Folks,

Just bought an SP808 and the chap insisted it all worked fine. I realise these are old machines so not sure if im pissing in the wind

When it boots it goes to the home screen but then theres no functionality in the machine whatsoever. The buttons have zero effect

It has had an OS update to EX and the zips provided are still the 100mb ones. There is an audible click about 10 or so seconds after inserting a zip. Is the drive the problem? Can it be replaced?

I ran a diagnostic on the drive and despite inserting a disk, it just displays the 'enter a disk' instruction.

Am i right in thinking there would be no functionality if the machine wasnt reading the disk?

Any info would be a great help.

hi
i think it's better to post it on the sp808 section, many 808 heads could see this post in a direct way...
