the story is we dont know how it is deleted,

it was working fine before, then suddenly it stop working and when i console to the device it goes directly to rommon mode

i tried to show the dir of flas but nothing. i mean no ios found.

rommon> dir flash:

so im suspecting because it has no smartnet contract thats why its deleted? its running 6months from the time its purchased. im currently coordinating now to the vendor.

- no we dont have other 3945.

thanks for response joseph.

To my knowledge, IOS doesn't stop working based on maintenance expiration.

It sounds like some kind of hardware defect to me because the IOS "disappears" after loaded (and visible in flash?) and then restarted.

yes. it is visible in flash after i put it. but after restart its gone and back to rommon again. this router is 3945 router.

you think this is hardware deffect?
