I recently purchased a 2000 DMG DMC103V. Im getting an mdbbe.ini error on boot and want to recreate the system drive from the original factory discs. I have a win 95 disc and two floppies, One dics is named "SETUP" it has 840SET47.ARJ and ARJ.exe and INSTALL.BAT. The other has all the machine data files KOMP, MDAT, NC, and PLC.
I called DMG and asked what the procedure was for recreating the system discs from the original dics and they refused to provide the info. Saying that it required formatting the drive with 4 partitions and was just toooo complicated for owners to do.
I have a quote in for a replacement hard drive with preinstalled software from DMG but am concerned it will take months to get this, and cost$$$$$.
I cant use the machine at the moment as I am getting a MDA (MDI) error (cant write into MDA window, MDA buffer error) that prevents me from setting up the tools etc to run a job. Machine will do most operations, including, referencing, jog,manual tool change, running simple programs, but no MDA.
Can anyone tell me the basics on how to create a new 840C system disc? Also, Id prefer to use a solid state drive. Ive read about people using SSDs on 840D control but no info on what type of disc is required. Any help would be appreciated.
Included is a photo of the control label.
