for the 2000. Its an old driver, but the most current for that machine

Hey Binger

Thanks for your reply, but I dont need the most current one.

Im not the one who needs the older version of the mpc2000 OS, Im searching for another person who really needs one.

Isnt there anyone who has the olders OS for the mpc2000 ??

Thanks in advance.

MPC2000 OS 1.70 is the one ususally sought since there was a significant bug introduced in 1.72.

Here are the PC and Mac compressed files:

hmmmmmmmm i used to use 1.72 but the disk got messed up. Now im rockin an old 1.70 disk for my mpc2000. What was the bug in 1.72???? is there anything wrong with 1.70???? thanx in advance

im curious too what is the bug in 1.72

HOW DO YOU INSTALL THE OS DISK? Do I need to save it to a zip disk or what? Floppy? I have no clue.

save the decompressed(unzipped) file to a floppy.......when you power on the mpc, just put it in and you will be set......

I've used 1.70 which was what came with my 2000 & never had major problems. I did just download 1.72 & it came with a PDF file saying what the changes were in Akai's familiar, slightly wobbly Japanese to English translation. It seems to be fixes of lots of bugs which I've never actually encountered with 1.70 so I'm not going to risk it.

It also says.......& this has to be a typing error........

SYNC: It now waits 50 seconds (used to be 1 second) for MIDI Clock to come in after Start Command received in MIDI Clock Slave mode.

50 seconds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Or is that the major bug in 1.72?

Back to the original question......ilgit, what OS number does your friend want?
