[sgroup] Hello

Hey guys ( and gals? ) My name is Robert, I JUST got a used S 550. Course it only came with 1 disk (utility) I found your site and have downloaded the OS (tried a few of them) and I just can't seem to get it to load. I keep getting disk errors. (on the S 550) I've cracked up the box and took the cover off the floppy drive and cleaned the head with a q-tip dipped in alcohol and still nothing. I am using a 1.44 drive to make the floppy's. Running Win XP. I do have a a win 98 box. I also have a S-50 in storage. I have many old floppy's for the S-50 as well. I godda say I've always loved Roland. The sounds they make are always nice, rich and warm. I'm looking forward to getting this sampler back up and running, but I fear I might need a new floppy drive. :( I'm going to go ahead and get some new media (ordering online can't find them locally anymore) and try that. Any advice is welcome. feel free to add me to facebook if you like as I have quite a few synth's and post pix of them here and there.
