Re: [Ensoniq-VFX-SD] Re: o.s. disks (or copies of these disaks) v 2.0 or newer

I don't suppose there is a way to do this on a mac is there? otherwise. I'll need a whole lot more than a win boot disk !!!!! But thanks for the info, and I do have some friends that still have pc's.... can only hope !!

You should be able to make your own. In the files>tools and service
section of this group, there is a zip file named "EDE109 incl
Images.zip". After unzipping the file on your computer, copy the
EDE.exe file and the VFXOS210.edv to a floppy. This software will only
work in DOS (not XP comand propt) so next you need a Window 95 or 98
boot disk so you can boot your computer into DOS mode. If you have
sucessfully booted into DOS mode, you will have a command promp.
Assuming your command promp says A:\ insert your disk with EDE.EXE on
it and type EDE.EXE at the command promt. When it opens, it will ask
you for a number. Assuming you only copied the VFXOS210.EDV file to
this floppy, the number you need to type is 1 then enter. The program
will ask you for a disk and when you insert one and press enter, it
should create a new VFX formatted OS.

Good Luck,
