I would like to know the same thing. EMXP seems not to have support for CF as a removable drive, only zips and CDs.

As far as I understand the process 'theoretically', you first get your Emax II working with the SD/CF upgrade to be able to SEE the drive, SELECT the drive, FORMAT the drive, and then COPY the OS onto the CF (or SD) card while you're at it.  Then it should become bootable if you select that drive as the primary boot drive.

Then using EMXP you should be able to treat it as a removable drive and copy over banks of sounds.

My present problem is that WinXP doesn't want to assign a drive letter to an unrecognized file system or 'basic' disk unless it is a 'dynamic' disk at least.  Once I allow it to become a dynamic disk in order to assign a drive letter to it, EMXP doesn't recognize it as a removable disk in the panel...my concern is that the EMAX won't recognize it anymore either.

Can someone help out here?
