  2. Here you will find a folder for each show saved, the folders are named PEXP0001 to PEXPxxxx, where xxxx is the last show saved
     

  3. If you wish to copy over the last show saved then open the folder containing the highest number following PEXP, or simply sort by date and time and open the most recent folder created.
     

  4. You will now see three files, Avo.sys, mempool.sys and a third file called PEXPSHW.xml
     

  5. Double click on the xxx.xml file, this will open in windows explorer, or alternatively you can open this file in a text editor.
     

  6. Here you will see the ShowName for the show saved in this folder.
     

  7. Once you have established which show you wish to copy to the floppy disk, copy the Avo.sys and Mempool.sys files to the floppy
