My Emax II won't boot up hardly anymore. It gives a message: Not an Emax2 Floppy Drive. I know it's supposed to read the Floppy Drive first but I don't know if...
Well If the light on the drive lights and you can hear the drive spinup then you know the drive has power but the heads are shot and the drive needs replacing....
Wow thanks for the reply! So even if it loads floppies (when the Emax is working) the heads being "shot" will prevent it from booting normally from it's HD?...
No No....I was only talking about the floppy drive, do you have a HD issue as well? Guess I was thinking you were talking about the floppy drive only. R ... ...
Well the confusion is my fault be I've "heard" that the Emax II looks for Floppy Drive first at startup, then SCSI, the HD. I have an HD that's functioning...
Ok so you are sure the floppy loads 100%, formats 100% and saves 100%? When this happens are you booting for the HD only. R ... From: sanctifiedonesky To:...
Hey thanks so much for the reply again! Not 100% sure now especially since there've been recent incidents where it says: Bad Bank on Disk, or Disk Error. You...
Hummmm well you could have a bad Floppy drive, I'm not surprised these are old drives and are reaching the limit of their operation. What happens is that the...
Yes, at startup it says Checking Floppy, and finding nothing it goes to SCSI: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 and then again with the numbers repeating and never...
Ted, Please email me regarding SCSI upgrade Kit for Emax Version 2. I cannot log into my yahoo account for some reason. EMAX2@... Thank you Mike G ... ...
Hi there, I hav a BIG problem with my Emax. I bought it on Ebay with just a few disks. These are working fine. Lately I downloaded all Emax factory sounds...
Everytime I use EMX I always boot from DOS, I do NOT use it in a window under XP / 2000/ Vista. Regards, Ted ... [Non-text portions of this message have been...
why not try using the EMXP program which can run on Windows? that might be a better way to go... ... [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
Yeah I just found out about the EMXP program yesterday! I'm gonna try and install this program today. I thought EMX was the only solution... Thanks!...
Right...I didn't know that. Does anybody know if using an external USB floppy drive can also cause problems with EMX? I don't have an internal floppy...
The Emax II rack PSU was made by Skynet and the model is SNP-3541 (40W , 5V, 12V, -12V). I recently bought two of those (in a very clean condition) from this...
... Yes I read that. But I wasn't sure about the old EMX software. Anyway, I have installed EMXP and an internal floppy drive now and everything is working...
How long ago did you order this part from them? They don't have them listed anymore. ... From: riksfetto <ola.ljungars@...> Subject: [emax] Emax II power...
I just installed successfully one of the flash media cards from scsi for samplers. Now, in theory the Emax II format up to 20 MB with flash cards, but I have...
Ok... I got my Emax II a few months ago. It has 4MB of ram and not hard drive. I got a smart flash card from scsi for samplers. It came in a scsi box. Well, I...
I am not sure where you get the idea there is a 20MB limit on the Emax II drive size. The Emax I HD model had a 20MB internal hard disk but as far as I know...
Sorry but this is incorrect. The HD partition limit of the Emax II is a set 540 mb. This is regardless of the drive's size or the amount of memory your unit...
Glad to see it works on mac! I just got a mcDisk2 (SCSI compact Flash/PCMCIA reader) for my emax2 and use a winxp computer with a USB compact flash drive on...
