Disklavier

Hello there...
I just bought a used Yamaha with a MX-80 unit and was
wondering also how to get MIDIs downloaded from the
Internet to play on the disklavier.  This thread is
very timely!  However, following Carol's instructions
(thank you) I have hit two dead ends. What am I doing
wrong?

From Carol's message earlier today:
> 
(1)It should be a 720k double density disk.  Format
this disk in your Disklavier and record a song on it.
Check! I recorded by daughter playing one of her
lessons.
> 
(2) Download the dkvutil program from the file vault
as well as some music files with the .fil extension.  
Check!  It has five applications and a text file with
instructions.

(3) Run the disk copy program - dkvcopy - on the disk 
you just recorded on and use the same disk for the
copy as well as the target.  Now your computer will
see this disk because something has been written on
the first sector.   Check! I saw some action on the
screen--too fast to note what I saw--and then it was
finished.

(4) Transfer some of those .fil songs to this disk.  
This did not work!  The Windows message I got was:
"The disk in drive A is not formatted. Do you want to
format it now?" Of course, I declined; this is my
disklavier-formatted disk.)

(5) You may also need to run the Explore utility. Your
disklavier should see these files.  This also did not
work! The message I got was: "Windows has returned a
meaningless error code.  Is the disk write-protected,
perhaps?" The only option at this point is to close
the window.

Any suggestions as to what to do next (short of buying
a DSR1)??
