Ok thanks. It did not come with the serial cable (so I can not upgrade the empeg) and I don't have a null serial cable and couldn't find one today at work (only straight through ones). So looks like I might have to pick up a null serial cable tomorrow.

I have been able to get the USB drivers to install on my PC running Win2000. Still crash when ever I try to add a play list or a song though.

Here is the last bit of what I get on the error log when I try to creat a new play list:
