sits on my desk and is not moved......how the heck does the CPU get knocked out of whack?????? That is why I kept getting error messages constantly, I'll bet!! All I have done is plug it in and fire it up, tomorrow is the big test when I try to stitch...wish me luck!!

'Fraid I agree, I've got 5 left, I'm sure they could do it just for fun. Ditto turns on the "cable box" so it warms up to sleep on. Really, I've watched her do it!

I just got my machine back yesterday after an eternity at the repair shop. They had to order a custom made bobbin case for mine on top of everything else because the machine wouldn't work with the factory parts. Hmmm. Strange. Anyway, a CPU can come loose like anything else. Vibration does it. Embroidery machines vibrate by their very nature. If you have a good solid place to park it, that is best. And a little tidbit that people don't think about...make sure that your machine is on a UPS. It is a computer after all, and one little power surge, power blink, or even dip can fry your sensitive computer parts.
Good luck with your NEW machine. It will probably behave like you forgot about it behaving when you first got it!!!

Crikey!!! sounds like you've got yourself a new machine. How did you ever sew with all those important elements out of control??

Good luck when you try it out.

It is a computer part = Central Processing Unit - all computers have one - and an embroidery machine has a computer inside of it.

Your machine should be like NEW. Let us know how it works out for you. I just got my baby back last Tues. after two 45 mile trips to the dealer for repairs. When I went in last Tues I took all needed things to stay at the dealers and embroidery something out it worked OK...so I brought it home. Put it thru more of it's paces the last two days and it seems to be working well. Best of luck!! H&*

Congratulations

I'm afraid to take mine in for a checkup- I'm sure
the poor baby needs some TLC. For sure a new bobbin case and needle plate and a deep clean and lube.
