Hi, i've been trying to boot OS 3.11 from floppy disk on a 3.03 rom mpc without success.

Here's a pic of what happens :

I operate in the following way :

- Format the floppy on PC in FAT mode
- Drag directly the MPC.SYS from the zip archive to the floppy drive or
- Copy the MPC.SYS file to the floppy drive icon or
- Copy the MPC.SYS file to the floppy disk opened in explorer (empty window)
- Insert floppy disk and power on the MPC

- Floppy's are HD or 2HD, 1.44MB
- They are not new but I have tried on 10 different disk brands
- The OS source is akaipro.com for 3.11 or mpc3000.com for 3.16


Any help would be much appreciated, thanks
