Emax

Perhaps also- buyer should use the COPY not the original to do the  
upgrade, then there would always be an unused original as  
source....just a thought.

That would be quite easy. The buyer needs a (WinXP/Vista) PC with
internal floppy drive, because the disk copy can not be done on the
Emax itself.

The buyer should use Omniflop (http://www.omniflop.com) and install
the omniflop.sys driver before using the omniflop software. I
recommend to use the latest version (2.2A).

Then start OmniFlop,
- click NEXT,
- select "Read Disk" and click NEXT,
- select the drive (A, B, ...) and flag all items except "Use slow
step rate" and click NEXT,
- when Omniflop recognizes the possible disk formats, select
80*2*10*512 Emax (standard) (or ...Emax (DOS standard) in the
previous versions of OmniFlop)
- perhaps Omniflop will ask to get a free license key if this is the
first time you use an Emax disk. Just press "Get license online",
provide the required information on the webpage, and you'll
immediately receive a key in your e-mail box which has to be copied &
pasted into the field of the still open window of OmniFlop
- then the "disk read" process will start (provide a filename when
prompted) and an 800K image will be saved to your harddisk.

This is the image we're looking for !

Note: I received an official Emu 2MB memory expansion install disk
with one of my s/h Emax-II samplers, but I assume it has been used
before and moreover, the last sectors of the disk seem to be corrupt
so it's pretty unusable now...
