HP 7914CT Hardware

Rod Dunn — Wed, 12 Mar 2003 23:09:43 GMT

Does anyone have a manual with the part number 35414-9000.
We are having trouble with the system giving us a hardware failure that HP has been unable to solve.
The problem was with the filter being dirty and causing a shutdown.
We get hardware failure ;HP7914, 1400, 0, 0.
Any help will be appreciated.

Perhaps you should post a little bit more information about the system, i.e. Series, Model, OS, OS version, etc., and what kind of problem you had.

A HP 7914CT is a very, very old (130MB?) disk/cartridge-tape, probably obsolete since some 15+ years, so I am not suprised that HP was not able to solve the hardware failure.

To me it just looks like you have a dead disk. Depending on the type of system, getting a new one will be difficult to impossible.
