Hello fellow Rio users. I've been using my Rio happily for several months. It came with an IBM 20g drive and I added a Fujitsu 60g. The player recently started locking up every time I try to play a song. It just freezes right at the moment the song would normally start playing. I connected the player to my terminal emulator and the output of the bootup is shown in the attached file (bootlog.txt). It appears as though the IBM drive has thrown in the towel. I opened up the player to verify connections and all cables/jumpers are in place. So my question is.....has anyone sees this before? If so, could it be the IDE cable went bad or does it seem like it's definitely the drive? Or is it possible this could be a software-related problem?

Thanks a bunch,
Mike

Yes. The connector for that drive had become slightly uncrimped. Thanks alot for the quick response.
