Emax

its best to use compact flash cards

ill send you a ebay link in uk where i get mine from

is it going into a rack or keyboard

as you will need to do some of the work as you need to drill your own bracket if its the rack and drill 2 holes for fitting the slim floppy adapter

if its a keyboard i can send you 4 brackets and the 4 allen key screws to fit and 4 rubber shock mount washers

just use a pcmcia to cf card adapter as the pcmcia slot is the only one that works in the pcd-60b and is set to scsi id0 with no jumpers fitted on ther scsi id pins

the converted slim floppy adapter is £18 a new slim floppy is £12

the mounting brackets are free and i provide some screws with nuts for the fixing of the slim floppy

how many cf cards are you wanting

Subject: [emax] RE: EMXP Sucess Specs Anyone? What system you running with EMXP?

Jammie,

Yeah, if you have the brackets and adapters and a spare slim floppy made up and ready to drop in I'd be willing to purchase that and some of your special sound banks. I would just need to send you the SD memory cards....

contact me offline and let me know what you want for the slim floppy and the sound cards and mounting brackets....

Well, tried Windows XP 64 bit with 64 bit omniflop drivers...NO GO

Error 89! etc etc...

EMXP won't work in any of the above OS configurations on my

system:

ASUS P5E MOBO with TEAC FDD running 4 gig Patriot DDR2 800Mhz RAM and Intel Core2Quad 2.4 ghz CPU.

When I say won't work I mean it wont see my internal IDE ZIP drive, a FAT32 formatted CF card or a Floppy disk formatted in my EMAX I OS SE rev 1.1 as usable media and gives me errors to the effect that the media is NOT EMAX usable etc etc..

When I test disks I formatted on my Emax I with a computer here at work (Commodore Desktop running Windows 95-yes ancient) using EMX through DOS, the Emax I formaated disks test fine. This tells me it isn't a matter of a bad floppy DD alignment in my EMAX I (The FDD is not the ONLY thing it will not see, anyway) for if that were the case (No offense to Jammie's theory, it's a good one nonetheless!) the Emax I formatted disks would not check out fine, nor be able to be read by the Win95 system here at work. IE: EMX would see the disks as bad, too.

So, I deduce this down to some kind of hardware/driver/EMXP compatibility issue with my system and now ask any of YOU who are running know GOOD EMXP systems to please share what your FDD/MOBO configurations are so I can build a system that will successfuly run EMXP and finally get some sounds into my EMAX I

Your patience and great kindness

(ESPECIALLY TED!) with my myriad questions and issues throughout this process has been greatly appreciated.

EMU users are the best
