see : https://hxc2001.com/docs/gotek-floppy-e ... oting.html
This doesn't work : I see "Nor" on the display when inserting the USB stick
The emulator is in "NORmal mode".
Since you don't have any OLED or LCD screen, you need to use the indexed mode or the "autoboot"/file selector mode if you have an Amiga/Atari ST/CPC.
- In indexed mode you must use the indexed config file and name the files images DSKA0000.XXX, DSKA0001.XXX, DSKA0002.XXX (replace XXX by the original file extension.)
See the usage page for more details.
The HXCSDFE.CFG indexed config files is in the firmware archive :

Welcome to the Emax nightmare
The issue is that the OS version present on the sound disk doesn't match with the one loaded into memory.
Try to boot from the sound disk.
Re: Gotek and Emax 1 will show screen "Loading Software.." but..
I do not have any emax disc.
Is there an image of a "universal" OS disc, that might boot the Emax?

Try to just select the sound disk and restart the emax with this disk.
Re: Gotek and Emax 1 will show screen "Loading Software.." but..
this is all new to me, Always wanted an Emax. Now I have 2 that don't work.

I have almost all OS versions and Disc imagies for the Emax.

I dont know the OS version of the Emax.

Re: Gotek and Emax 1 will show screen "Loading Software.." but..
It seems like this is an ongoing issue and there is no document or troubleshoot,
I'm in the same boat, Gotek / Emax 1 Se. Shows screen "Loading Software" though I can scroll through the drive.
I have jumper set to SO
The files on the flashdrive are:
Emax_SE_Bios_Disc.hfe
FormatMe.hfe
Mixed Chorus.hfe
NIN_BLKDIST_EM1.hfe
TR-808 KIT 2_EM1.hfe
Gotek was bought on ebay, seller setup the drive and O/S, though the HxC / Gotek drive isn't talking to the Emax
I tried switching around the bus cable and a green light came on the Gotek and Emax then says Insert disk, when I scroll through
no sounds are initiated on the Emax.
Help needed please

Re: Gotek and Emax 1 will show screen "Loading Software.." but..
I manged to swap a data cable with the another one, now the drive is lighting up green properly
Without the usb stick its saying "emu systems inc loading software"
With the usb stick inserted it first says please insert disk, then "disk not formatted!" when I change to another img by pressing the gotek buttons it says please insert disk then again "disk not formatted!"
Before I changed the data cable it would just stay on "emu systems inc loading software" without the green light on the emulator drive.
So it looks like the data cable was causing one part of the problem.
