I also notice that files that load with no problems are listed in this exact order :

1 .ACT
2 .CMP
3 .EFM
4 .LSW
5 .MSP
6 .PMT
7 .SQT
8 .TM

Thanks Larry. That is probably it! That exact order happens to be alphabetical order.
So if the machine looks for .act and gets to something else 1st it assumes it is not there, not being programs to look further than .cmp. being that the kn does not put it in any other order than alphabetical it is just that technics didn't make it more intelligent. they thought there was no cause. a windows scrambling of the order is to be blamed on microsoft. Sound right to you? Come to think of it, disks I had trouble with were put in my PC to add midi files. I see thats not a good thing to have midi AND tech files on one disk. Even though the order can be changed to correct it. If I add just one midid file on a disk the kn might read it 1st and not find .act.
