Pod time out usually means you are either not getting the clock or a poor
connection to the CPU socket. "Forcing Lines" etc refers to control lines
like RESET, HALT, etc, and these need to be either floating or disabled by
setting control lines to NO, to disable them you go into SETUP, and press
MORE to cycle through them, then press NO to disable the ones you want the
pod to ignore. I then scroll past (MORE) and then press STOP and go back to
the tests. Works for me...
