does the "enermax" sticker have a little star on it ? It's probably
just a sticker from a computer power supply some joker put on there.
I have one on my Cell that came with the 485 watt PS I use for my
music PC.
Have you tried loading the factory sounds? When I got mine every
preset sounded like gibberish, but I sussed the interface and
figgered out that a lot of the presets were scrambled from having no
battery. bn
