  1. Sorry, got busy with getting married and moving into our new house, but I'm back. I got it working by fluke. I used Microsoft Office Picture Manager to change the size to the right size. Then I exported the picture using MOPM to export it to a .BMP. Made sure the file sizes were the same as stock and it worked! Apparently it didn't like me manually changing them to .BMP or the fact that file sizes were larger.
  2. Wow, blast from the past.....yeah this was a joyous problem when I first had this. What a major pain in the but and I'm so glad it's over!
  3. Loading JPEGs directly to the hard drive? It's a Z1 Unit with a aftermarket Toshiba hard drive running the Z3 image. When I put JPEGs directly onto the hard drive it doesn't even show the name on the list. I did this with some of the pictures that you guys posted here. Maybe I'll wipe out the folder and put 20 images on CD and try it that way. Its just a lot easier to load them directly.
  4. Hey Guys, I'm having a bit of a problem. I converted the pictures to BMP by opening them with Microsoft Office Picture Manager and exporting the pictures to BMP. The names are no longer and no spaces then the stock names. They're 500x240. There is a comparison below. By the way I'm loading them directly to the folder on the hard drive. I have an unlocked Z3 on the new hard drive from Garret. The HU recognizes them and shows the name. But when I click them it says "JPEG is Corrupt". Comparison: Stock (CITY.BMP) / New (Field.bmp) Width = 500 pixels (6.94") / 500 pixels (6.9
  5. Guys I'm having the same problem. The convert to BMP by opening them with Microsoft Office Picture Manager and exporting them to BMP. The names are no longer and no spaces then the stock names. They're 500x240. The HU recognizes them and shows the name. But when I click them it says "JPEG is Corrupt". I'm at a loss, what do I do to fix this?
  6. Can someone do one of these for Ford?
  7. Cool, thanks I'll be using that for the loading screen to replace the Pioneer screen!
  8. Is there anyone willing to make me a custom background using one of the pictures below? It doesn't need to have the background these pictures have, but just incorporate the truck some how? Maybe something with 'Navigation Loading...' too? Thanks!

  9. Well I type MHDD and it pulls up the numbers 1 thru etc. With nothing listed. I press shift plus F3 and still nothing pulls up. The Toshiba drive is plugged into the adapter and then into the master cord with the adapter power plugged in. At the MHDD, I still hit #3 even though it was blank and it took me to the MHDD prompt in blue. I typed "EID" and it said "Drive not ready in red". I feel like it cannot see the drive. I am wondering if I'm having a similar problem as another guy previously who needed to update his bios. I have an Abit I35 pro mobo. Version 1

At which point I will be entering in "EID" etc in the list of instructions on page 1 of this thread?

  12. Hey Guys, Trying to turn off security on my Toshiba drive to put the z3 OS on. I have all other drives unplugged from my tower. Using the IDE adapater, the Toshiba drive is plugged into the Master ATA plug. I also have the boot disk in the CD drive. It goes through it's boot process, says no hard drive found quickly and some other text flys by. Then it goes to the MHDD prompt. So I type "EID", and it says "bad command or file name". Above that on the screen it says: "Disk Contains: list of things....... Your CD/DVD-ROM (if any) is mapped to Z: MHDD is
  13. The obvious question is (and forgive me for asking it if you're already savvy to burning CD images correctly) "what do you see on the disc." If all you see on it is a single file -- the ISO file you burned -- then it's not burned correctly. Use ISO Recorder to burn the image to the disc as an image. Link: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm If that's not it, we'd have to get a little deeper into troubleshooting. What drives are on which chains? What does the boot order say currently (did the changes save correctly?) does the disc boot on another system? etc...
  14. I'm beginning to wonder if something isn't wrong with the boot CD. I used a new CD and burned the ISO to the CD that is on the link provided in the other thread. It was the download ISO for CD booting named "Magic_Boot_Disk_ISO_v2.0.iso". Was I supposed to burn it a different way?
