Dear Stephen,
thanks for your fast reply. Of course I did all this actions like discribed on page 120 and 121. I even pressed the reset button more than 30 min without any result. Now I will try your proposal with the "zero" disk. Hopefully this will work. I will keep you posted.

Note that a zeroed/blank disk is NOT the same as a reformatted disk.
