Removing the system disk, floppy disk, or CD-ROM drive

CAUTION: There are no field procedures that require opening or adjustment of the
CD-ROM drive. Attempts to open or adjust the CD-ROM drive could result in
hazardous radiation.

Installing a new system disk or restoring a corrupt system disk

NOTE: This procedure applies only to systems with single system drives. If you are
replacing a failed drive in a media platform with a redundant system drive, follow
the instructions found in “Replacing a redundant system disk drive: DupliDisk II
Controller ” on page 110.

If you are installing a new system disk in the media platform, you must perform the
following procedure to return the system to operation after all the cables are attached,
the screws tightened, and the covers snapped back in place. The replacement system
disk is blank, so you will need to use the Profile XP System Drive Rebuild CD-ROM
that you received with your Profile XP system or from Grass Valley Support.

If you are restoring a corrupt system disk on which the information is unusable, you
must perform the following procedure to restore the system to operation.

CAUTION: This procedure destroys all data stored on the system drive. Perform
this procedure only if there is no other way to restore the system drive to operation.

Before you begin (and if it is possible to do so), copy the configuration file,
C:\profile\config.cfg, and the hosts table, C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\HOSTS,
onto a floppy disk or to a network drive if available.
