I cloned the Flash Memory Card (CFI-128MDG ) for the Topaz-X (circa 1998). The contents looks identical to the orginal, but it will not boot the machine. Has anybody tried this and know what is wrong? (MSDOS 6.2 OS) thanks!

I think it's FAT16, but not sure. Yes, it was cloned on a modern computer, but it was bit for bit so should be identical. I didn't think you had to format it before cloning.

I always use Odin software to clone CF, and never had any issue.

Hi ii is possible to clone a hard disk, but the calibration data must be backup first. if this not can, then the machine must be calibrated.

Jin, Cloning is possible, but the machine will have to be recalibrated since calibration data from running machine will be copied to failed one. As to back ups. Are you able to get into engineering menu? Regards

I'm assuming it was formatted in FAT12 or FAT16, MSDOS 6.22 doesn't support FAT32 AFAIK. Was it cloned on a modern computer?

I tried to clone my cfi-128 flash memory card, but can't get it to boot. I am concerned because I have no backup if the original Flash card stops working. Does anybody have a flash card with Topaz-x VIOS and (MSDOS 6.2) preloaded? I would be looking

Not every program can clone a CF card. I did it but I need to check with what kind. You can also simply insert a new CF card into the machine, INSTALL DOS from floppy disks (same version) and then COPY the entire disk EXCEPT the system files (msdos.s
