Glad to hear at least part of the PK-6 works.....but I would verify first that the Proteus 1000 ROMs are compatible with the PK-6/Proteus 2000 series....I myself am not sure of that....

  Hey all thanks for the responses. Regardless of whether or not I
  can get this PK-6 completely restored, I won't be selling it anytime
  soon as it still functions just fine as MIDI controller. Another
  user sent me an OS update so, using E-Loader, I successfully
  updated the OS from 1.0 to 1.02. Unfortunately that did'nt fix
  the problem. I'm starting to think that perhaps the original
  ROM was damaged. In any case, I have a Proteus 1000 on the way
  so I'll be able to test the ROM. I only paid $150 for PK-6 so
  even if I can only use it as a controller I'm not too upset.

  Cheers.....Cristofe
