I picked up a 5d MK II BRICK in hopes of reviving it. It came with a CF card with ML on it, but would not boot or anything. After repairing the CF pins, the camera will flicker the red LED but wont boot. (This only happens if I use the battery grip, inserted with camera switched ON)

My first whack at it was formatting the CF card and fresh installing ML files. But nothing changed.

Then, I put a different CF card from my 7D (with ML) and the camera turned on! BUT... the LCD worked fine, however only showed the ML screen saying "Incorrect build for this model." Also, only the LCD was on.

I can only assume what the previous owner had attempted, but does anyone have an idea?
