Cyberstorm MK2 firmware and keyboard problems
« on: November 26, 2005, 05:58:19 PM »
Hi,

I've "updated" my Cyberstorm MK2 with the unofficial Bodylove firmware; the one with the A1000 jingle on boot. Problem is that since the update after sometime the keyboard stops working. When I unplug it and then put it in again it works again.

Could this be from the Mk2 update?

Hmm...

I can't find any other firmware files to restore my MK2.
Does anyone know where to find it?

The MK2Update program says it only updates the SCSI driver...

Yep I tried it and only the SCSI part is updated.

Could you read an image from your firmware and mail that to me please?

Here is the page I found:

http://www.neodyne.de/bodylove/downloads.html

The program MKxDiag is what I used.
There is also a program to make a backup of your current firmware called MK2Backup. Could you please make an image from your MK2?

I flashed my MK2 without backing up... STUPID!

Could be but I've tried two keyboards with my computer and the problem started when I flashed my MK2. So just to be sure I want to flash it back.

How do you enter the bootmenu of the MK2?

Thanks, I read them but there is nothing there about the firmware unfortunately.

@ X-Ray

He he, didn't get that one :) But there's no mention of a bootmenu; so I guess the MK2 doesn't have one then...

@ Doobrey

If you could do that for me that would be great!

@nex4060

The backup program can be found here:

http://www.neodyne.de/bodylove/downloads.html

It is in the MKxDiag software and called MK2backup.

I tried my 4000 with my 030 card and I don't get keyboard lockups... So I do think it is the firmware on the MK2 that is causing faults.

Hmmm.... I read the docs from the archive and I don't see how I restore the firmware back to its original state even when I have a correct image.

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Well I couldn't find out how to flash it back, but I formatted my HD and isntalled a basic OS3.1 with v1.3 of the libs and the problem hasn't returned. So I guess it's a library problem and not the firmware. Pfheww !! :)
