I am trying to upgrade a friends D8B to version 5.1. Is there any chance I could get that image from you? Is there something that needs to be done to the CPU? Any help would be appreciated. Im pretty savvy but this not my own gear, so Im trying to learn as much as I can, to help my buddy out. Thanks for any info you can provide.

Or you could dump the floppies, replace with CF flash drive and load the hack image file onto the CF flash drive using a backup and restore program on windows using a CF card reader.
2 d8b's 5.1 OS all the plugins, Mackie 32.8 Bus, 2 iMAC 27", Apollo 8 Quad, Cubase 9, Logic Pro X, VEP 6, 4 TB of VSTi Libraries, 28 Roland, Yamaha & Korg Synths and Keyboards, NI Hardware and Software.. Plugins, Plugins, and the list goes on...
