I GOT MY MPC1000!! but i think its broken... :S

hey guys, i got my MPC for a good price from a really well known store.
Im just wondering..i still dont no how to use it too well and i was recording some drums. I hit the pads and its recording. However, when i stop recording n pay it back...the drums r off...like they come later then when i pressed it...

is this the quantisizer? How do i change that?
thanks

I'll try to help...

F1 at sq (sequencer) page... Which is TC (timing correction)..Make your quantasize adjustments in there...Or turn it off (and live dangerously)

These should help you out

Look for all the words in the manual, try every feature until you understood every chapter, saves u and us from many questions.

ok cool...
but i have another problem!!!
and i actully did properly look at the manual and online.....

I put in a new 1gb flash card, bought some samples, downloaded them to my mac, attached the USB...put everything on and everything copied on fine (its all there on the mpc)
However, whenever i press MAIN > LOAD and i load a program (for instance West Coast Kicks (which has about 60) ) it loads. Then when i try do another program it does about half and says 'FILE NOT FOUND!" but then when i switch off the machine and turn it back on, and i try load that program it works - so its obviously there....
whats wrong?!
Someone help me out!
(sorry for being annoying and asking all these questions!!)

did you format your card?

bought.. samples..? what?

Yeh i bought some drum samples.
Listen. Format my card? How do i do that? And if i havent already is everything screwed up???????????
