I just has this issue and replaced the MIU card. I ordered it from IBE SMT. Make sure to troubleshoot before purchasing anything of course.

if you download the mint program (maintance key switched and download via auto mode. Does is read the card correct and does it identifies the correct motor encoder?

I believe the gentleman in India found a problem with one of the EuroSystem cards; AND then an issue with a corrupted PC MINT on the HDD... Seemingly resolved.

1. Check for pins or something else under the rails. 2. Check the motor for the axis and the sensor that defines up position(I doubt it there is an encoder for this motor) 3. check card 4. check interface cable

Search for the bios or motherboard on ebay. Type in the part numbers you find on the boards and see if anything comes up. Often these are standard pc boards. I've repaired my old MPM by finding the cards on ebay cheap.

I have seen battery leakage damage traces on MINT cards... Since you indicate failure on machine initialization, assume you are able to communicate / accomplish MINT download. (?)

Ok.. ignore all the above, the X1 card has failed- nothing more. Can anyone recommend a supplier for a replacement ?

If you are unable to get to Diagnostics to exit to DOS; Try the following: ‘F5’ (WHILE STARTING MS-DOS) –OR ‘CTRL’ – ‘C’ (WHILE HIMEM IS TESTING EXTENDED MEMORY) Once in DOS, CDMINT Type LOAD to download MINTS from HDD to cards. DEKHEAD

Thankyou so much Dekhead, that worked perfectly. We're up and away again. I'm assuming the card just got it's data corrupted somehow. I'll know next time !!! Thanks again
