Hi guys,
I have an old Sony NW-A1200 in mint condition but unfortunately the HDD broke down. I removed the HDD form the unit and I'm trying to get the unit working from a CF card.
Now the following part is for the users more familiar with the NW-A series:
I got the unit back alive again, though it tends to crash when I plug and unplug it from the PC.
Also, when I plug it into the PC, Nor SonicStage nor the PC itself wil recognize the Unit.
When I load the rootmap (from another working NW-A1200) onto the CF card through a Cardreader (I formatted the CF card before in the Unit itself) and put the CF card back into the unit, it recognizes the CF card and the songs and librarie on it just fine and behaves like a normal NW-A1200.
Now I want to get this baby up and running form a CF card neatlessly. I know it is possible for iPod mini's so I guess it would be possible for the Unit too?
All help is appreciated!!!
Regards,
ric
