So I final was able to boot my 5170. On the initial memory check it gets to 3200KB (out of what should be 4736kb) and says
380000 00FF 201-Memory Error
164-Memory Size Error-(Run SETUP)
I can then hit F1 and continue. It then tries to boot from the HDD which brings up a constant Non-System Disk or Disk Error message. When I hit enter the drive tries to read with about four unsuccessful "blehs" and the gives me the same error.
Anyone know what might be going on? The drive was said to be bootable so I'm assuming it's fried? It's the original 30mb MFM drive so I'm wondering if the fools needed to park it before sending it and didn't. As for the memory, is this a setup problem or do you think a board may have come loose?
