It could have lost the hard drive settings. Make sure it is set to manual and CHS
Set it to 3303 cylinders
16 heads
65535 WPcomp
0 LZone
63 sectors

Then change it from CHS to LBA to see if it boots.

There are more settings to change but try these for now to see if it will move on...

please forgive my ignorance...

Once i power on machine what is the correct procedure to access cmos on this machine on the control?
Its like a computer? Pressing F? on power on?

Unfortunately at the moment the Hurco manuals i have are in German to the exception of the "Getting Started with Your VMX Machining Center" I found online.
