CX-24 EEprom error

[carnie]

Help, I haven't used my Roland CX-24 for about 3 months, when I turned it on I get an EEprom error on the screen and
its dead as a doornail, the head moves just a bit down when power is turned on. any ideas?
Thanks

Contact the company you bought it from and start yellin' . . . !

You did buy it from a company . . . Right :

Are you pinch wheels located in the right place? This will sometimes cause an error. I would check to make sure they are in the right position.

I got it fixed, someone told me to try a firmware update and that did it. Whew

Arggggggggg Thought it was fixed turned it on today and got same message, had to hit it with the firmware twice and was able to cut with it,this machine is a few years old but probably has a hundred cuts on it, emailed Roland, they say I need a new mainboard $$$$$$$$$$$$$
