Gigabeat F60 System Error 00000003

<< < (3/3)

I think I saved a "DD" image of my MBR and boot partition on my home computer, I could post them (anyway to post a small binary file in the forums via an attachment?).  It would then be possible to us dd (need to get a cygwin version for xp) to write them to your drive to restore a corrupted image.

Nate!:
That sounds like a plan.  The Cygwin install is fairly simple.  I thought for months now that all was lost so I uninstalled it a while back.  If you don't mind I'll PM you my email address.

Thanks!

Was wondering if anyone has found the meaning of this error?  I've replaced the original drive with a Toshiba MK1011GH 100Gb model.  Formatted the new one with the GBRoom 3.0 software and copied over the GBSystem directory.  Then I used RBUtil to install Rockbox.  Booting up quits after a few seconds with the System Error 0x00000003.

My 60Gb drive started to work a few months back after an almost 8 month break.  Maybe it just needed some rest.  Every so often I'll get this error with the old drive, but I can usually boot back into Rockbox after switching the battery off and on a few times.  I can't really see a pattern.  The error happens sparadically.  I'm definitely no electronics engineer, but I don't see any loose connections, or blown circuits.

I may just have to suck it up and find another F40/F60 online.
