Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000

Hi
i have this 8gb flash card and i need a way to transfer samples from pc to mpc2000.
So i buyed an usb cf reader, but the pc can't see the whole space in the card
I know that it's about partition, but there's a way to see the entire card in the pc and in my mpc?

(i formatted the card in the mpc from A to I )

thanks

In short answer, there isn't.
The partition scheme is not same as Windows partition. I think only the first partition block (A) is accessible from PC.
This is reason why never use partition CF cards on my MPC-2000XL.
Sounds like you are using MPC-2000 classic, is it the case? My suggestion is, use the first partition only.

yes i have the 2000 classic and i have formatted the card with the mpc...

is it true that it isn't a way to see all the partition on the pc?

As far I know, there isn't.
File management is MPC-2000 classic's number one weakness, if you ask me. I replaced my Classic with XL (I still have it), and I'm happy with the decision.
