Re: EII to DPX translation software

2012-12-20 by stuntman444

Hello!

I will revive this thread because I have exactly the same problem described here.

The only difference is that I my newly purchased DPX has OS 2.2.

About functions of the DPX:

- I can format diskettes and save RAM content onto them
- I can load diskettes in Prophet 2000, Mirage and EII format

About functions of my PC:

- I can run DPXTOOLS, I get no error message, all procedures are completed (apparently) successfully but the DPX doesn't read diskettes made with the computer and says nF if I insert in the DPX a diskette I formatted with the PC

- I can successfully format and write EMAX diskettes, my EMAX will load then without problems

In the PC I installed the Fdrawcmd driver and the disk drive is internal (no USB) and it works with EMXP for EMAX.

I would really appreciate if someone could help me sorting out this issue.

Many thanks!

Edo
