Need screen shots of the halt error, or what caused the cascade.  Also a screenshot of the install screen, that is the only way to tell what is on the ssd.

Not allowing me to upload picture. File too large.

resize it, or just transcribe what it says on the right hand side window.  That will tell you what is on the SSD.

There should be more than that, you are missing the OS and associated parts (license manager, etc).  Did you factory wipe the drive before you installed the game.  It's odd that the game would install without passing the dependency checks.  If you don't have the OS in the SSD, I recommend you factory wipe the SSD (boot machine with install card only and select the factory reset function).  Power off.  Insert OS card under the install card. Power up and install OS.  Power off, replace OS with game card, power on, and install game.  Power off, remove all cards.  Power one and go through setup process and you are ready to play.

The os can be installed into any ssd.  You just need the OS install CF card or usb thumb drive (depending on OS Version)

Any idea where I can get the os flash card for  my machine. I believe the computer is unix based.

Place a WTB, you probably want to get at least 366J.  370B is next version, but so far everything I have tried has worked on 366J.
