Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Thanks to everyone for their assistance.

I'm now able to get the music and drums to play
through my DTXpress Headset (from the PC's midi out to
the DTXpress's midi in).  I ended up resetting the
DTXpress to the factory settings since I couldn't find
the "one" setting that was the problem.  In the
initial joy of downloading/uploading sysex files after
installation, I think I downloaded something that
changed more than just a drumkit on my DTXpress.  Word
of caution, make sure you  know what is in the sysex
files you are downloading.

Secondly, and a little off topic, I do have a problem
with StickMaster displaying it's menu items on my
Windows98 machine.  I'm working with support, and it
is due to my PC's support for PNG image files.  I
haven't fixed this yet but am continuing to work with
support.  I think it's time for a new pc (and one
where my kids haven't downloaded every product known
to kid-kind).

Thanks again.
