Thats typical of a PC to corrupt sysex data and then the A6 will get 
"dizzy"...sometimes the A6 needs a complete reset when receiving 
corrupted sysex.
Try other applications/midi interface to send the sysex for the 
A6...its really a massive amount of information...there are a lot of 
parameters for each patch...or else...get a Mac ;)
