problem with 5i25 configuration

Hi All,
I have a problem during the pncconf configuration of my 5i25.

When I arrive to the the X axis clicking on the Test Tune Axis button I got the error on the dmesg:

[ 521.147065] hm2_pci: discovered 5i25 at 0000:04:00.0

[ 521.147098] hm2/hm2_5i25.0: FPGA failed to initialize, or unexpected firmware?

I tried also to rewrite the firmware using the latest mesaflash tools anf bit file from mesanet but I got always the same message about invalid cookie:

mesaflash ./7i76x2.bit write
Found mesa5i25 board
Checking cookie... ERROR: Invalid cookie: 55aa4afe, expected 55aacafe

I tried also to check the other switch:

mesaflash ./7i76x2.bit detect
Found mesa5i25 board

Thats either a bad 5I25, bad PCI slot or dirty contact finger problem

I would try cleaning and reseating the card or trying another PCI slot.
If that does not work then the card needs to be returned for repair/replacement

Just tried another PCI slot and now it wokrs.

Great Mesa Electronics technical support! 10+
