Re: My New 2101

Hey Graham,
Thanks for the quick reply. I have successfully performed the power 
reset doing steps 1-5. That works fine. I can also hold the utility 
button in when powering up and can access the reload all algorithms 
and midi functionality. I will check the eproms like you said, I 
didn't think about that. As far as a program goes I have never 
attempted anything like that before so if you could email the system 
dump program and tell me what I need to do to perform and what 
cables? I need to have. I really appreciate it. Is it possible that 
the 3.00 a chips are bad or worse the board is bad? Or do you guys 
see this thing all the time?

Thanks again,
Kevin
