Right-o. I do not have a fatal issue here so I think best to tread lightly and do nothing until we know servers are up to handle the re-registration. Larry, are all 5 of your units hooked up to Internet and getting regular use without any freeze ups or are they not I-connected????

As I'm sure many of us do now, I do not have the 300 connected to the internet. If and when gracenote is working I plan to keep it that way.

Yes, I did all that too but as noted not in the ideal order. Interesting that the hook up to Internet is not upsetting any of your units so that says what I have is not endemic. I have a mail into Steve at Panurgy to ask if he has seen the phenomenon I am experiencing. You are right I need to stand by until and unless Mc gets the servers up again. Does anyone know what the difference between a flash of the bios and a reinstall of the MS Complete 2.0.7.1(called Golden Disc by some) is in terms of intended result or does the latter accomplish the former???

As I understand it, there is a low level BIOS that begins the boot process, then it goes to flash memory which is also a type of BIOS and finally the hard drive to complete the boot process loading the Operating System. As we know the hard drives are frequently fried by the bad power supplies. The golden disc can reinstall the O/S on the hard drive and refresh the upper level BIOS. The low level BIOS is not available to most of us. Panurgy and Mac can reload them. For all I know, Panurgy may even have to send them back to Mac to do that because a couple of mine went that route before I discovered the real problem. The low level BIOS stores the MAC address, and other hardware dependent items. Last time I talked with Steve and those at Panurgy, they always thought it was hard drives and motherboards so they kept trying to replace them. They didn't accept the fact that a stolen capacitor formula could reach such havoc. I suggested they call Michael Dell. It cost him over 300 million.

Another week and still no anomolies with Ethernet Cable unplugged and a lot us use of the music files. But I want my I-Radio back. To be clear, am I right that there is only one setting that needs to be adjusted and that is to dis-enable (uncheck) the updates box in the Setup/Utilities/Update Software area? Nothing at all to disable in the Radio module, except possibly to delete all the stations that were original installs that are now defunct? Want to be sure about all this before I hook up the Ethernet cable again.

Escient E2
Can someone give us a definitive way to know it an Escient is an E2 or not? Is it certain model numbers, is it the way the rear looks, is it in the serial number?
Thanks. |

Sure thing. Front of mine has a label: Digital Music Manager E2-100. Rear has label with bar code and number, top of which says: Escient and then E2-100. Accept no substitutes!

My unit (running i-Radio daily) all of a sudden is no longer freezing once a week on Tuesdays or Wednesdays, so no more reboot requirement. Go figure
