Hello Rob,
Are you after the blank operating disc that you need to get the thing going?
If so, let me know.
I'm in Australia, so if you are not, and don't hear back from someone closer let me know.
Cheers, Jarek.

Hi Rob, did you try the other options besides EMX ? 1/ EMXP (Windows XP)for which you have to install the EMXP EMAX floppy driver first (included). See files section for download. Note that not all disks formatted by the current beta-version of EMXP are bootable from EMAX samplers. The same is true for EMX. 2/ CopyQM (native MS DOS required, don't use a Windows DOS box) for which a zip package exists including the Plus OS, see files section. The PLUS OS should work fine on your HD SE. Using CopyQM almost guarantees a perfect working bootable disk, but CopyQM is a strange program to use :-) 3/ OmniFlop (Windows XP). You can download OmniFlop from the http://www.shlock.co.uk/Utils/OmniFlop/OmniFlop.htm website, and format a disk using the format option in it. Just choose Emu EMAX as a target layout, register the application (when OmniFlop tells you to) and format the disk. Then use EMX (under native MS DOS) to put the OS on the disk. Why using Omniflop instead of EMX/EMXP ? Because there's a bigger chance that the disk will be bootable on EMAX samplers. I was going to publish the new version of EMXP today, which definitely can make your disk, but I discovered a small problem in the program after two days of intensive testing so I will put the release on hold for a few more days and remove the problem first.

Ed... No problem... I've put my EMAX-I zip stuff on hold a few weeks ago because I wanted to finish version 1.92 of EMXP. Which will be released at the end of this week. It looks stable now, e.g. no lost data on ZIP disks anymore, quite stable EMAX-1 <--> EMAX-2 <--> WAV conversion features and 100% support for the more reliable OmniFlop floppy driver. But v1.92 will still only support ZIP disks for EMAX- II, not EMAX-I... I've sent you a small testprogram a few weeks ago that should be able to select banks from your EMAX-HD zip disk and convert them to EMX files on your PC harddisk. Next week I will make a similar testprogram that can write EMX files to your EMAX-HD/PLUS zip disk. I will not post these small testprograms to the group because they're really for die-hard test purposes only. Sorry about that. Final version of EMXP, including ZIP support for EMAX-HD/Plus will be released in september/october. Small chance that it will also have an AKAI S3000 import/export feature, but that's really a SMALL chance. After that release I will end my EMAX programming (and support) efforts, because I really have other things to do in my life :-) Let me know when your e-mail works again. ///E-Synthesist --- In emax@yahoogroups.com, "elmacaco" <elmacaco@...> wrote: > > yo Kris, > > sorry, my pc took a shit and I had to reinstall xp and everything else, what were the other things you wanted me to test? > > I'm having sketchy access to email. > > sorry about that, > > Ed > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: esynthesist > To: emax@yahoogroups.com > Sent: Tuesday, August 15, 2006 5:52 PM > Subject: [emax] Re: looking for emax HD SE O.S disc > > > Hi Rob, did you try the other options besides EMX ? > > 1/ EMXP (Windows XP)for which you have to install the EMXP EMAX > floppy driver first (included).
