The fact that it didn't work with either 2K or ME makes it sound like you've just got the wrong cable.

However, just to be sure, try hooking up with Hyperterminal and see if you can get anything at all. Check the FAQ section of this BBS for details on how to get Hyperterminal working with the Empeg.

Also note: the serial port settings for Hyperterminal (shown in that FAQ) should also be the same ones you plug into the Windows Control Panel for that port. Make sure those are in there before trying to run an upgrade.
