I agree, Ketron owners should not feel like the under dog! Whilst there is no need to bash other products, the more owners that do talk about their Ketron, the better it is for everyone. I have never spoken a bad word about Tyros or PA3x and I don't see why Audya keyboards and owners should receive the abuse and belittling they have done on this forum.

If there is something you want to share, you have the freedom to do so.

With regards to your programs, if they are older try copying the program folder from your old hard drive to the new drive. Once you have done that find the programs *.exe file and double click on it. You might find it works. A friend of mine borrowed my Paint Shop Pro disk (a program I realy like for some quick editing) as his was stolen - needless to say he lost mine too, but I have copied it over to new installs quite a number of times now.

It wont work with all programs as some write to the system registry and install additional .dll files in the windows system folder - with those you snookered unless you manually copy all the files and edit the registry - very long and painful - take my word for it!
