No, I guess it doesn't matter where you got the SD (Sound designer) files from.. I used CKRename to batch change all the file extensions to ".EII" otherwise the conversion program (HxC Floppy Emulator Software) would not convert them to disk images that the HxC would recognise. ie - CD full of SD fies -> batch convert to ".EII" with CK rename -> then batch convert to Disk Image using HxC software. I'll write up a step by step guide when I'm all done.

Does it matter if the SD4EII files one owns on CD were burnt from a Mac or PC?

It would be sweet if someone made a 5.25" bay panel with the LCD and the SD card slot integrated to make it look good...has anyone done that? --- In emulatorII-list@yahoogroups.com, Mike de Vries <mrjdevries@...> wrote: > > It's a pretty easy install..

It used to work perfectly. A couple of months ago I moved my studio and yesterday I finally tried to set it all up again and now the Classic won't boot when the CD-Drive SCSI connector is attached! I get the question mark on the Mac's screen. When I remove the SCSI plug on the Mac it will boot up normally. I tried all SCSI ID settings on the drive and also have a SCSI termination plug plugged into the 2nd SCSI terminal on the drive. I verified the Extensions folder and the CD-driver is still there. > > > > > > Does anyone know why it's doing that? Am I missing something? > > > > > > > >  > > >  >
