Dear All, Iam using a compact flash (Type 2 device) used for booting and running my application software. I boot and run the application sw from the Compact flash(CF) and then switch Off the system after testing.. Please note that the CF is always plugged in. Over a period say testing my system 500 times , the system just hangs when i boot it again and we need to restart the system.The screen suggests that there is no device to boot.Iam able to see the other devices detected by the system. Please note that this behavior happens only sometimes after using the CF over a period. Can anyone give your comments on the above behavior?. What could be the problem while using the CF over a period of time.
