  Hi all,

  I just bought a second hand XL7 and I'm quite happy with it for the 
  moment. It looks like what I need (a sequencer for live situation).
  Now, I got a pb with the USB recognition in Windows XP. When I plug 
  the usb cable into my fully booted XL7, I got the message to install 
  new hardware but when I point to the USB folder, windows says that it 
  cannot find any information for my device. I tried to manually update 
  the driver and it didn't work either. I even right-click the .ini 
  files and chose 'install' but that didn't work either...
  I'm not a beginner in computer and Windows, but i cannot solve that 
  problem. I searched the oemxx.ini files in the Windows INF forlder, 
  to delete the one that might refer to the 'unknow USB device' but I 
  couldn't find one. Did someone experienced that pb ?
  I'm on XP pro Service pack 1, Asus a7n8x-x mobo, with nvidia chipset.

  Also, when I pluged the usb cable on the XL7, I noticed that the usb 
  connector on the command station was 'moving'. I opened the station 
  and noticed that the connector isn't hold by anything, except for 
  four 'legs' that are part of the connector and are soldered on the 
  board. Is that a know issue ? I add that the xl7 is in mint 
  condition, so I doubt it has suffered damages from the previous user.
  Furthermore I guess that if the connector wouldn't be working, 
  Windows wouldn't start the install process when I plug the cable into 
  the XL7, right ??

  I hope that someone can help me. Not that I couldn't do without the 
  USB connector(since apart from speeding the sequence transfer it's 
  worthless)...

  Oh, and yeah, my XL7 is os 2.00 and eloader is 1.1

  One more question: since E-mu discontinues its command station, and 
  will even turn to software product only (from what i've understood), 
  will there still be some support and os update in the future ?

  Thanx a lot
  Cheers
  IS
