The game had been working fine minus the steering feedback. I just replaced the 2 op amps and the steering works now but the game reboots shortly after it does the steering test. Runs the test and reboots everytime.

PM me what you think or post here.
 
cold is never good for gmes especially ones with hard drives. If its 55 or less you shouldnt even be powering them on.

Uh oh... I don't think I can get it ABOVE 55 in my front room where I'm setting up... maybe I should just leave them on all the time ;)
 
I don't believe a bad hard drive causes rebooting on the Rush's - you have not accessed the hard drive yet when on the steering wheel test screen. If you want to rule the hard drive out go into the setup as soon as you boot and run the drive tests.

Actually, right at the end of that screen (that is, when it moves away from that screen to start the game) is when it hits the HDD for the first time, so it's totally plausible.
 
Yes, that is true, that's why I suggested going into the setup menu prior to the HD being accessed and do the drive tests. That way you can most likely rule out the HD as being the issue. In my experience on the Rush's though a bad hard drive will result in either a blank screen after the wheel/pedal tests or a message on the screen saying something along the lines of bad/missing home blocks or filesystem not present, etc. I'm not saying it's out of the question that it could be causing the reboots but you should easily be able to rule this out, that is if you can get into the setup without it rebooting on you.

I'd be checking/cleaning my edge connector and verifying voltages as well.
