Our company has a 93VF0 displaying "offset crc error".

The machine only boots tot he point of Displaying "Haas", "v4.28e", what looks like a date code, and the error message.

Haas and our local service provider says that if the machine would boot all the way that error means low battery, but since it won't boot that our software is corrupted. They refuse to provide or even sell just the software. We tried getting the chips themselves or the binary files so we could flash our own chips.

Both companies insist that the only way to fix the problem is by replacing the whole board at a cost of $1800.

Has anyone encountered this problem or a problem similar and/or does anyone know of a way to reinstall the software besides re-flashing the chips?
