        After a 6 weeks of being not being used,  my Eclipse now gives me the following error upon power up.

        Internal RAM is New – clear and format it?

        If I do not format it, it behaves terribly, and pressing 'yes' seems to temporarly restore things until the next power off.  I replaced the internal battery  less than a year ago  (the checksum error).

        I did the memory fix error as explained in the manual last night, which seemed to work when I cycled the power, but this morning I was faced with the same error.

        It is bumming me out… Any ideas?

          Sounds like your battery is flat. Replacing it should solve the problem.

          But, the battery should last more than a year (typically 5-10). I would suggest that you try another battery, in case the last one was weak. If this also runs down quickly, you should contact support@eventide.com

            Changing a battery is easy, so I will give it  a shot!  Thanks…

              Sorry it took so long to report back, but I went out of town before I could purchase a new battery.

              Installed it yesterday, and it properly booted up this morning.  I guess I bought a bad one last time.

              Hopefully I will get 5-10 years out of this one.
