This is my story:

1) download 2 files from korg's site, os 2 and resource. This is not my first upgrade and I know the steps.
2) at power up, I press INTRO1 and then load OS 2.0. When procedure is finisched, I restart my pa800.

but....

when pa800's boot is finisched, after 1/2 seconds, everything is blocked, freezed. No response from switch, from display, from keyboard...

mmmm...Ok, it's a crash, I think! Restar pa800 but...nothing. Then I've reinstalled os 2.0...but, when I reebot pa800...freeze.

Then I want to try to reinstall my old os 1.60. Whit this, it work fine, every thing it's ok.

Damn....I've write my disappoint in this forum...but I coninue with new strategy...

Download Format file, with resource of 120 Mb about. When I reboot pa800...every thing work fine...yeah! I've played with new sound, new styles etc.
I load my performance, my songbook, and my preferences.

Turn off the keyboard. After about 1 hour, turn on the instrument and....IT FREEZE, after 1/2 second! Nooooooooo!

Now I've reinstalled os 1.60. But I don't understand, my pa800 always work fine!

Mr Tramannoni write me to help when I thing it's resolved, but now....

Delete your downloads and re-download them again. You may have a bad file?

I always use FlashGet when downloading files.

Gives me a perfect download each time no matter how bad your connection is, and I'm using a 3G modem. My connection is great the best of times, but it can go to mush completly, yet flashget never fails me.

I saved my user styles and followed the directions to load OS 2.0 and the new resources for the PA2x.

I started playing around, trying some sounds and styles.
At some point when I was playing a style (Brazilian Samba ) I noticed that the Start/Stop Led was not lit, yet the style was playing. I tried pressing the Start/Stop button, but the style just kept playing. At that point my phone rang, and I tried to lower the volume with the master volume slider, but it had no effect. I then tried other buttons, to no effect. Nothing worked.
But I was able to play the keyboard with the style. I was able to change styles via the touch screen.

I then turned the keyboard off.
Should I try reformatting?

Sorry for your troubles.

The update Worked perfectly for me.

I reformatted and installed the OS and resources and now it seems to work.
I'll have to spend some more time to make sure it is stable.

Seems that I guessed right that I should re-format the drive and install the large OS+resources package. No problems so far.
I suppose it is always better to reformat the drive on a major OS update.

I've formatted pa800, but with no results!
