E : Booting error

Post by farbs73 » Fri Jul 27, 2012 23:40

My DP-p1 has a E : Booting error and wont turn on. I had to turn it off when I tried to run an MKV movie from an external hard drive that didn't work. When I tried to turn it back on again all I got was the E : Booting error message on the screen of the wiz. Can anyone help? Cheers

Thanks Peter, I'll have to find someone with XP. Either way Warkus said he can help me. Cheers

We had an E: BOOTING error on our P2, and I tried fairly hard to find a way of running the firmware recovery tool without having XP running as the native OS, but I failed. I eventually ran the recovery tool on a old machine at a friend's.

I can dig out the thread about it if you're interested in the messy details.

Cheers, I found instructions on one of Warkus's previous posts. Now on the hunt for an XP owner. A mate has an old laptop that may be running XP.......hopefully.

farbs, add your location into your profile - that way people can see whether they are in your area so they can offer to help you.
Cheers,

Hi Brian,

He is in Perth. If he cannot fix it himself by finding an XP machine, I will do it for him when I get back to the office on Tuesday.

prl,

It's just canned bootp/tftp. 10Mbit hub with a box running Wireshark attached will give you the details. Or you could search the ASCII strings in the Win32 binary and try to deduce what may be required.

That much I'd worked out. Just never got it working on my Mac. OS X gets in the way of running some daemons the way you'd want to sometimes.

To Farbs,

Hi, did you find a solution to this problem as it has just happened to me and I cannot remotely update. Please email me at dempete@optusnet.com.au

Thanks.

Same problem just happened to me too.

Is Window XP is a must or can I give it a go on Vista?

A search on the forum didn't reveal anything more than that the firmware recovery tool is "untested" on Vista. It definitely doesn't work on Win7.

It's not much effort to test it, though. It may be useful to find out for sure.

No luck. I got as far as connecting my FV-L1 to my router and turned it on using the 1-2-3-4 process. It started initializing then came up with the error "E:network"

I am pretty much a luddite so perhaps I did something wrong?? For example, the only IP address that I had available in the RemoteUpdate drop down box was that of the router. I tried direct connection to my pc but it didn't seem to work??

Is this something I can get fixed somewhere? What about this warkus dude?

Then again, perhaps I might just chuck the machine in the bin and get something else ... never been that happy with it (again - quite possibly driver error).

I'm not surprised that it didn't work on Vista. Do you know anyone who has a PC that's still running XP?

Does anyone have the RemoteUpdate.exe file?
I can't find it on any of the sites mentioned previously.
I've got a DP-P1 showing the E:Booting error.

Incidentally, the second post in this thread points to http://www.beyonwiz.com.au/phpbb2/viewt ... 1149#91149 which gives a 404 error.
It looks like the beyonwiz server forum URLs changed at some point, and the correct address is now:
http://www.beyonwiz.com.au/forum/viewto ... 1149#91149

BTW: If you encounter this with other forum links, just replace "phpbb2" with "forum"
