I have an Audity 2000 V2.01 with the same problem. When I purchased 
this A2k it was already messed. When the self test diags are run the 
CRC for the SIMM always fails. The factory presets all come up 
as "not installed" as do any attempts at accessing the ROM's samples. 
I have another V1.00 A2k that the ROM works fine in. Somehow the SIMM 
memory is wiped in this A2k???? Can anyone explain what has been 
wiped from this synth? Now I see Triphammer has this same problem 
with his PK-6. 

EPR Electronics has told me they can restore the SIMM memory. Is this 
feasible??? I'm wondering this for two reasons. Can they still make a 
V1.0 A2k into a V2.01. 

Thanks for bearing with me (us) on this borderline OT post, Fran

that they porked the PROM rom, the PK6 main board, or both.
