Which programs were they, and what method were you using:
1. Mr.Atari Image Manager (START)
2. Hias' Myidetool on the PC
3. My Image Manager program

It would be #1 that's the one that comes installed on the MyIDE+Flash IDE Cartridge. I've used before and it ran just fine, now I can't get anywhere with it.

Hi Walter,
You mean to say that a image that was stored and run succesfully,
now won't start? If that is the case, you had a bad write from a
other incompatible Atari system.
What helps most of the time is to re-init the CF-card with FDISK
and use EXACT THE SAME settings as you had. This wil NOT distroy
data, but only rewrites the bootsector of the CF-card. You need
to use the same settings, so the data that is already on the card
still can be found (and is on the same place).
If not, thus a new image won't boot:
-It overwrites part of the MyIDE-locations / disabling it.
or
-Overwrites the MyIDE-OS / uses the standard build-in OS.
Here the internal 4.3E-OS is a solution.
Cheers,
Sijmen.

Quick guess - it looks like something is turning off the IDE device.

Try the 4.3-E OS instead.

Burn the TWO eproms 1200 XL version
both are 8k, you need to set the jumpers(?) on your mainboard from (masked)ROM to Eprom.
Files are at the STICKY post about the 'new' 4.3 OS .
Cheers,
Sijmen.
