Title: Highway - Posiedon OEM floppy = error on track 2 :(
Post by: smiley1635 on August 21, 2006, 10:43:27 AM

I recieved my Highway today but upon putting the OEM posiedon disk in and starting up the install file it says error on block/track 2.

I have tried a few floppy disk recovery programs, each saying it is un-repairable.

I do genuinely have the disk and can take a picture etc proving it.

Could someone with the same OEM disk be kind enough to email me a working ADF of it?

as answered in EAB, the reg info is built-in for E3B products, although for your subway a v2x is nescessary. you can upgrade with a discount to v3x though...

Ok all done.

Is there anyway to definately check it has auto-registered?

I have attached a USB mouse and it works fine :)

if it was unregistered, after ~5mins you would get a nag screen...
aslo check the controller properties in trident
