Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

Thank you guys but I solved it myself:
In case somebody else is experiencung this:

I had to reinstall the java runtime on my computer, initialised the 
mp-7, then it worked. But the E-loader/microsoft java conination made 
to my laptop freeze up several times when I uploaded the MP-7-
patterns from CD. (Very good thing, you can completely overwrite the 
factory patterns, a bunch are IMO simply yak!)
