touchscreen controller, motherboard and hard drive. If one of
these does not match with Ion hardware, the game will power up
and display “MAXX” on the screen and it will not have the H2H

"ERROR
READING
DRIVE C"
•
This message can be caused by the hard drive or in some
program versions, a coin jam while the game is turned on.
1.
Turn the game off.
2.
Locate DS 1, position 8 and turn it on.
3.
Turn on power to the cabinet. This will start the hard
drive checksum test, which should take about 20
minutes to complete.
4.
When the hard drive passes the test it will display a
"CHECKSUM GOOD" message and continue to boot
up into the game screens. This indicates a coin jam.
5.
When the hard drive fails the test, the game will lock
up with a "CHECKSUM ERROR" message, which will
stay on the screen until the power is turned off. In this
case, the hard drive will have to be replaced.
•
"DISK BOOT
FAILURE"
This message indicates the motherboard is not receiving data
from the hard drive and has locked up.
•
Check the IDE ribbon cable connections to the
motherboard and hard drive.
•
Check the power to the hard drive. It should have +5 volts,
+12 volts, and ground.
•
“QUANTUM

Try reloading the program onto the hard drive with a
different set of update discs compatible with the security
key. If it will not accept the download, try another DVD
drive. If it still does not work, replace the hard drive.
