I use BC0 on my machines and works fine with gameking 8.3r. although b03 is supposed to work, I've never used it though.

If you wiped the drive clean, then you will need to boot with ekey7 and the OS loader usb drive to install the OS.  Once you install the OS, you will need to boot the system without the ekey and the OS USB and go through initial setup until you get to the point where you add games.  If you are going to be using a gameking release.  Then at this point you power down.  Boot with ekey7 and gameking 8.3r loader and install.  Remove ekey7 and gameking 8.3r loader and boot system.  Then you can do the gameking autoconfig.  After the autoconfig, you can then selectively edit the games to your preference.

If you are not going to be using a gameking release, then after you go through initial setup, you can add the games through the setup menu/add packages option, you do not need to reboot machine if you are not going to be using a gameking release.

Did you also wipe the hard drive when doing the diagnostic clear?  If you are using an SSD, it has been our shared experience here that some brands do not work for some reason.  I use sandisk drives exclusively to avoid any issues with that since they always seem to work.  I know some versions of PNY drives don't work, can't remember others.

No signature found means the game can't read the boot 1 or boot 2 chips.

I would try to reseat both first, and then try reseating the Serial ATA card.

You may have a bad Serial ATA card and/or a bad boot chip on the card.

Make sure the ribbon cable is seated as it should be and in good condition.

He is getting no launcher.  By that point both Boots 1 and 2 have validated.  Launcher is the OS

Wiping the hard drive is the correct step.  Why the system is not seeing the OS is beyond me.  Are you sure you are wiping the everything and you are not getting the write protect switch issue?  The little toggle switch needs to be write enabled position.

do i need to put the switch in the down position to proceed with the os install ?
or maybe there is a newer version of the diagnostic thumb drive ?
this g23 seems to have the latest components , and i tried the ribbion cable , it seems to be working and i have no lights by the reset button

I have no idea beyond what I've suggested.  At this point, I would try a different OS, maybe yours is bad?  For whatever reason, the system cannot find the system files on the hard drive.  I've always left the switch in the up position without issues.  What version of the diagnostic drive do you have?  I think for OS's in the "B" range, you should be using 14-21.
