I now believe that is is a hardware problem I have.
I disassembled the unit last night disconnected the battery and left overnight.
This AM i did some more tests and sometimes the unit comes up with the firmware fail screen, and sometimes locks up on the logo screen. Sometimes the status light flashes continuously, sometimes it stays on, sometimes it flashes once then goes out. Seemingly random behavior.
I was able to try the 10X reset script posted here with no luck.
I think, due to the nature of the problem before I started playing the firmware and the nature of the symptoms displayed after , that my issue is hardware as opposed to firmware / software.
If anyone else believes otherwise , please fill me in.
Now I have to decide whether to throw the xtra bucks for an iLiad, or get another Sony, seeing as I have a spare battery, display and housing now.
Thanx
scott
