Is a Smart Media card present in the memory card slot? If so, try powering up without it.

No, i don't use Smart Media. Now that you've mentioned it, the SM in the error could be related to Smart Media. But the slot is empty, i don't use it

Hello guys. I solved my problem that same day but i forgot to write here. Anyway, the error was caused by the conductive paint peeling of from the buttons. I used it to repair the contacts but it didn't grip unfortunatelly. I found a better solution: remote control repair kit. It has small graphite "buttons" and a silicone tube and you apply them on the buttons. So far all good. Thanks
