Hi Bob

I've tried to enter the diagnostic stage by  holding the cursor
buttons but my unit is still frozen.

I'm going to send it off for repair.

Thanks for your help.

Regards

Steve

Hi Steve

I would try to see if you can enter diagnostics mode or if the boot sequence is stopped right at the hardware reset stage.

Diagnostics mode can be entered by holding down the right and left cursor arrow keys while powering up the unit.

See posts 18806 & 18812 for more info.

If you can't get into diagnostics mode, it is probably a hardware problem that won't be solved by a factory reset or reloading of the OS....

Any others listening have had a similar past experience.. ....frozen on boot with all LEDs on?

Hi Bob

Thanks for your advice with regards to my PX7

I've had a go at removing and then reseating the rom boards as well
as checking for any loose cables.

I have power with all the led's showing on switch on but then the unit just freezes.

Regards

Steve

The most common problem with the aging or moved xX-x series keyboard/module/ command station is the seating of the sound ROM(s). My first recommendation, since power seems to be OK, is to re-seat the ROM. While the unit is open, it wouldn't hurt to verify the seating of internal interconnecting cable. Don't forget to remove turn make sure the unit is unplugged or the main unit power switch is off before working on the unit.

Try this first and we can take the next step depending on that outcome.

I was wondering if anyone can help with this.

I was playing a patch from my PX7 when suddenly there was no sound.

I turned the unit off and then on again and all the led's light up but 
then everything seems to freeze.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Steve
