      Interesting. Can you please tell me what issues? As I already indicated, I am not touching the original drive (I am keeping it as backup) and I also made a full image, so that I can recreate it at any time.
      I am going to try with Win 7 embedded but also 2009 and IoT 2016. I really got nothing to lose and as it is my profession, I enjoy playing about now that I have the Beomaster and I haven’t yet set it up.
      I am sure though, that the 1GB PC5200 Ram is not going to cut it, so I am going to replace it with 4Gb if possible or worst case 2Gb.
      At the end of the day, it’s just an application that runs by default, when windows loads. That’s pretty much what windows embedded/IoT does (not exactly, but close).
      Will update as soon as I got clones and backup image done.

        Will do. Windows XP, I can work with. I just want to clone the drive first, so that I have a backup and then I will start playing like crazy. I’ll even try to update to Win 7 or more and see what happens.

          Thanks Johan. Unfortunately it is exactly the menus I am missing and cannot get for the life of me. I even changed AM role to 0 and rebooted just in case, they will appear, but in vain.
          I have tried all 5 settings (0, 1, 2, 5, 6) as role, but no change except the ir working or not. I cannot even find what 5 and 6 AM roles are in any manual.

          I think the only way would be to do a recovery, so that it goes back to default. I just need to clone the drive first, just in case.

            Thank you Tignum. I do have the service manuals and tried to follow them, but I get no response from the Beosound through the Beo 4.
            Also, as you can see from the photos below, I do not have the needed menus available. Neither Service menu nor Network settings. And I can find no way to activate them.
            I am close to doing a recovery reset on the Beomaster, to see if that will fix it.
            I did get it like this from the seller.

              Yes, thank you. I did this a thousand times, but I only just noticed on your screenshot, that you do not choose settings, you just highlight it. And it’s right left, right left. I was doing the opposite, from being used to things like that.

              Got the service menu, perfect. Time to play and see what is wrong.
