Problems with Northstar Max 3 and EMXP?

2010-05-04 by ditabeardmemo

Hi everyone:

I recently purchased a new copy of the Northstar "Max 3" CD-Rom for Emax II. As usual, I planned to copy the banks from the CD-Rom onto Compact Flash cards, as I do not own an external SCSI CD-Rom drive to run directly with the Emax. Unfortunately, EMXP refuses to recognize the CD-Rom. The program simply hangs up on the "PLEASE WAIT" screen when checking the CD-Rom drive for a compatible disc.

I did notice that the disc is a CD-R (green surface), and not a professionally manufactured CD-Rom (clear/reflective surface). Could it be a faulty burn? I also could not create a .dmg file from the disc in the OSX Disk Utility.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Best,
Brandt
