Changing motherboards

[cncjeff1]

Greetings All,

I have a client with an M400, #10960 (originally #6962 with a replacement console) running CNC10, Version 2.70. I don't remember which motherboard is currently installed. Hopefully, one of the Centroid techs can provide that information. The past few days he has reported intermittent problems with an error of "413 CPU Failure #01". It appears to be heat related. I don't think it is the CPU10 card, as that was replaced this past September. I suspect that the current hard drive (Probably CF) is IDE. Again, this should be able to be verified by Centroid personnel. I have replacement motherboards from Gigabyte, GA-H81M-HD3. They have only a SATA connection. My question is this: If the current hard drive is IDE, will I still be able to use a disk image from the CF to a new SATA drive, or will I need to create a new hard drive. I spent last night in the emergency room with an allergic reaction, so it will probably be a day or two before I am in front of the machine. Thanks to everyone in advance.

Best Regards,
Jeffrey

Hello Jeffrey, I hope you will be feeling better soon!

From our records for K10960, it should have an ASUS M4N68T-M V2 motherboard. The SSD installed is recorded as an OCZ OCZSSD2-1AGT60G which is a SATA II device.

That Gigabyte motherboard is for Intel processors while the console is recorded as having an AMD Athlon X2. I don't know much about CNC10 Linux and motherboard compatibility so hopefully someone else can chime in about that.
