Hi Graham,
I saw your post to Kevin, and I would be interested in backup software for my 2101. I'm running windows XP. Can it work with this?
Thanks,
RJ Marozzi

Hi Kevin:

I was looking through some old email messages this evening and came across
your message of about two months ago.

Did you ever get your GSP-2101 up and running?

We just finished a new version of our MIDIWizard software that performs
GSP-2101 System Backup and Restore as well as some other pretty useful
features. ; If you're interested in a free copy, let me know and I'll send
you one.

Hope you and your GSP-2101 are staying healthy.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best Regards,
Graham Pearson
