Try do use one of the latest software patches like:
R5.1.2 E2.504.1.al
R6.0.1 F1.603.1.ah
R6.1.1 F2.502.22.c
R6.2 F3.301.27
R7.0 F4.401.23.a
R7.1 F5.401.11.e

I had the same problem with a GD right out of the box. It could be flashed but stopped with the same info on console. I was fed up after some experiments and returned it... don´t waste your time

I had the same problem

GD od GD-2?
The new delivered GD-2 works then?

[Harald]

The Version is 6.1.1 f2.502.5 c

The Board is GD-2. i had the same problem at 4 weeks ago , with an cpu from oxo (cpu 1) there is no problem.

I must recon that Eliott was the one that gave the solution first time on this forum and helped me then transforming a CPU3 (from OXO) in GD
