Close down the emulator Rename the file hd4.hdf to AAhd4.hdf Copy file to data stick Rename copy on data stick back to hd4.hdf Move stick to Sony Vaio Delete the existing hd4 file on the Vaio Move the data stick version into place on the vaio ie. Program files(x86)/RPCEmu Run emulator on Vaio *** It fails disc not understood *** Copy this new failed version back onto the data stick Move data stick back to samsung and copy hd4 into RPCEmu. RUN Emulator on SAMSUNG. Works fine. This after I've twice re-installed the emulator. After months struggling with the networking on an XP machine to realise it would never be reliable or even approach it, to now get this I'm really starting to think this is a wind up.
