The HXC has been up and running for months. I have been sampling onto it & renaming files. It has been working fine until last week when it came up with a few boots with scrambled characters on the screen, then loaded one or two more disks/sounds and then after that all I get is !Bad FIle!
Nothing had been changed or updated and the sampler I have it in has not been moved. I have the HXC installed internally in my synth and can't even get to it without opening it up.

please do a small video of the problem (the power up and the issue.)
For me this not an hang. The SD HxC seems to react well.
Can you remove the "Trashes" folder from the sd ?
Also try to put an HFE at the root of the sd to test the emulator.
To Enter an subfolder don't stay to long on the select push button.
I think that might have been the problem. Strange that the HXC has been working for so long up to now but there was the .trashes file (from formatting as FAT32 on a mac) and there was also a copy of that file – ._trashes
Im not sure what happened to cause the failure but I guess the invisible files were definitely part of it. I'll let you know how it goes when I have the HXC back in my sampler.
I did originally format the FAT32 card on a PC, and did all copying and file operations on a PC.
It seems like just inserting the SD card into a mac will install the invisible files and folders. I am really surprised that the card worked at all as I cannot get anything to load with those files on there but I had been using it as is for a month or so. Very strange.
If anyone out there has a problem with scrambled LED or bad loads I would suggest checking for invisible files and folders should be the first thing they do. The HXC was operating with them on there – but very erratically.
