Re: Minor Mark IV issues

2010-12-06 by dcolema2001

Thanks to all for the comments.  I'll try shutting it down for a longer period of time.
Where can I download the Virtual PRC and DKVBrowser?  Is the VirtualPRC a Yamaha product? I'll probably need to get my Disklavier updated to use these new utilities.

Thanks again.  Have a good day.

I have a problem when I have not played any of the music on it for a while. When I decide to play some music all looks normal but it never plays. I usally have to shut it down, unplug it, then restart it. I did that over the weekend and it still did not play. Any suggestions?
