When I download from the vault files and try to play them back on my 
piano I get the message that the disc is not formatted.  Can anybody 
tell me what I'm doing wrong? Is there instructions anywhere out 
there that can assist me? Thanks!

It all depends upon which Disklavier you have.  Which model do you have?  
Some only play ESEQ files; some play ESEQ and MIDI O; and some play ESEQ, 
MIDI 0, and MIDI 1.

You may have to convert the files you downloaded to a format your DKV will 
play. These progams are available in the vault - DKV utilities.

Those that only play ESEQ files, MUST be placed on diskettes that are double 
density (one hole) and not High Density - the more common and have two 
holes.  Sometimes it is possible to fake out the computer and tape over one 
hole.

Only files of the same type should be placed on a disk.

Dear Carol:

Many thanks for your reply.  It seems this piano is going to win over 
my mental state, but I intend to keep trying.  The model that I have 
is a 5 Foot Disklavier, DGA-1.  My piano is strictly a playing model 
with no recording equipment.  Sure would appreciate any help you can 
give to help me get a better path to understanding.

Thanks,

John Bryant
