SAVP 2.5 Boots and OS

[tjlee]

I have a SAVP with a 2.5 brain box in it.  I keep trying to set this up from scratch but keep getting a HD authentication error and then it just keeps rebooting.  I have wiped the drive, nvram, and cabinet a number of times with no luck.  I have used 14a09 os with the boot chips shown in the picture.  Boot chips match.  What OS is needed for these boots or what os/boots combo do I need.  Thanks

I now cannot get the diagnostic screen to come up.  The diagnostic dongle is good.  The drive will load os and loaders from boot OK.  I have reseated the memory, changed all batteries, used a different hard drive and all I get is the the AVP logo screen and a reboot over and over.  Not being able to get a diagnostic screen baffles me.  Any ideas.  I don't have a spare 2.5 PCI card I can swap in it.  Thanks

BUMP   Can somebody tell me what BIOS and OS can be used in a 2.5 Brain box.  Still no solution to my problem with the slot.  I am ready to junk this brainbox and switch to a 3.0   Thanks

Os conflict with those boots, you can use a AI014-075 or a AI014-09S

Are you still having issues Ted?


What memusa said about os conflict is not correct.


When using bootchips ending in
2004- 2.0
2504- 2.5
3004- 3.0
You should use OS 014-A0B or A09 for ported games (family 014) and AE011-042 or 043 for emulated games (family 011)


075 or 09S will not work with your boot chips.


I have attached a doc to help.

My mistake, Now that I see the picture again, I read the boot number wrong. At the moment I thought it was AVPSB01410C04"
I never knew that a 2.5 could handle that OS you mentioned before and the document you attached made things crystal clear  [size=78%]. What i do remember for those 2.5 is that the letter "c" doesn't requires a jumper and the letter "d"does. Still have to verify this..[/size]

Yeah, they get confusing when they dont make significant differences in the naming conventions.


In the 9 series ones (referring to 9 series OS)
A, B are 2.0 - downloadable and non-downloadable
C, D are 2.5 - downloadable and non-downloadable
E, F are  3.0 - downloadable and non-downloadable
And the 10 or 20 before the letter signifies for sale or wap. 


In the A and B series ones (referring to A and B series OS)
B is for sale games
C is for WAP only
E is for daily fee

[/size]And the B series ones[size=78%][/size] weren't developed for[size=78%][/size][size=78%] [/size][/size]2.0 or 2.5, only 3.0 lol.[size=78%]
As far as jumper, there may be a version where the jumper is not needed but that's not intended, the jumper is only for an added step in write protection and write enabling.
