I have an mpc 1000, an older version 1.7 os. (the Blue with the red sides). I use to keep it on for days on end which may be the cause of my problem but....I just recently loaded a 1 G compact flash card with samples and drum kits with programs and all. When I try and load the wav's into my mpc, it won't read the card. If i jiggle the card in a bit, it sometimes reads the card but doesn't recognize the files. It does the same thing with the other card i had in it, the 32mb CF that originally came with it. When i hook my mpc to the cpu via usb, the computer always asks me to format the disk....Some one please direct me to a repair shop, or do i need a new piece of hardware, or if i can fix it myself...This is the brain of my set up for the moment...Please Help

Visit a local music gear store, they can probably point you in the right direction. While it's not a good idea to leave some gear on all the time, it doesn't sound like the problem. If it's older it may just be the flash reader being dirty, dusty or just broke.
