That's a Type X3.
Are you using the Artax multi? You should try the Discord for support.

Hi @rtw! My TTX and Blast City were sitting in storage for the last year or 2. Before that it was set to autoboot TGM3 and was working without issue. I finally was able to get them hooked up again today but am having trouble getting it to boot properly. At first it was getting stuck on this BIOS screen that I could only see with a separate monitor (I assume 800x600 or something being unshowable on the blast). I replaced the coin cell battery but no change. Then I hooked up a keyboard and pressed F1 and that caused it to start TGM3 (the game I had set to autobot). I thought all was good, so I turned it off and restarted. It was TGM3 again, but no video. I rebooted again and it shows the mouse for a second, then blue screen. Now it does that every time. Any idea what happened?

@mikaeltarquin hard to say. At this point I would download the newest version of the multi and copy across the games again. A lot has changed for the better.

It looks to me like the CR2032 watch battery that maintains the CMOS settings died. Open the case, swap the CR2032 battery out for a fresh one, then power up with a keyboard attached and press DEL repeatedly until the BIOS Menu comes up. Load the Default Options, then Save and Exit. The computer should then reboot and hopefully act as it did before.

Oh I did replace the battery with a fresh one, but I didn't get into BIOS, I'll try that as well tonight. Thanks!

Hm, DEL didn't do it, but CTRL ALT F9 brought me here. I don't remember a password for this, but then it was a long time ago now that I last worked on this. Google isn't helping for some reason, either.
Edit: Updating the drive to 5.0.1 seems to have worked. Thank you both for your help!

Okay. I mounted the image file using onto an SSD using HDD Raw Copy Tool. I put all the games in separate folders on the third partition. But when I plug it into the X2, I get the X2 loading screen and then when it's done I get a BSOD.
I tried reformatting and doing it all again and got the same thing. The X2 works with an official game hard drive. Any idea what I might have messed up on?

This is for the TypeX, if you want the multi for the TypeX2 with all the games pre-setup shoot me a PM.
