I have been having some issues with the external floppy drive as well. However, today i was READING THE MANUAL, and it says to "Insert the boot disk" and then "HOLD DOWN THE ENTER KEY",until the machine reads the disk. I will be trying this to see if this fixes the problem of not booting from the floppy.

As far as software/hardware for EDS 3, you won't get it cheap, but you can sometimes find it on ebay or at "embroideryyellowpages.com" a sort of embroidery clearing house.

Hope this helps.

I'm back and with some good/bad news.

The good with the proper RSA files i have been able to start up a emc6ml and get it to run designs off of a floppy disk.

the bad news i have a RSA file for a emc10 but it will not boot a known good floppy drive Drive was tested on the emc6

right now the melco RSA server is not functioning,

I have EDS III ver 3.5 software for sale. This is the basic version and I have the dongle which you will need to upgrade the software and save money. I am also checking this week to see if I have another network card. Let me know if you are interested.

Do a Google Search for: Yahoo Groups / Forums Brand / Model Specific or just a Melco Embroidery Machines and/or Software Group. You'll be surprised, there's probably a group and/or Forum that is specific to your machine. I found one on my old 1983 Melco Superstar two.

Over the years, I have found several of these groups very beneficial. Folks on site for a specific brand / model have "been there~done that" and are more than sympathetic to your needs and will reply with many helpful suggestions.

It costs nothing to join these groups / forums and you will only benefit, if not, no biggie to close your account at any time, costs you nothing but a little time.

BOL,
Beth

Call Melco and be very forceful and demand to talk to the head of service. If you are forceful with them and demanding you will get the service you need, you just need to get over the head of some of the idiots that work there. They do not want the bad publicity that they are getting with this thread
