When I try to install the Max Drive all I get is a message saying:

C:\\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS & Microsft Windows applications. Choose close to terminate the application.

Ive tried everything possible on that link above and NOTHING working!!

Surely there is an easier way to get round this ??

Pls help all i want to do is get my max drive working ive had it TWO WEEKS and still can't get it working!

Don't install it then.

When you plug the max drive into the usb drive, can you see it there as a removable drive? If you can then you just need to copy the downloaded .max file and paste it into your max drive. Done.
And copy any files you save onto the max drive into the right folder on your pc.

I'll try and help mate!
Start from scratch.. the windows error message that came up ..was that when you tried to install the software... on your pc?.. this again might sound daft but you did use the correct MD software disk didn't you?:unsure:
the MD PC & PS2 software disks that come with your max drive adaptor are remarkably similar..so just check and try again.. next.. try and install the max drive software that comes on the pc disk.. try and do this before you plug in the max drive to the usb port on your pc.
Go onto the forum and select the file you want.. transfer/download the file to a safe place on your pc for the time being.
Restart your pc and plug in your max drive adaptor.. when the pc has finished loading try and download/transfer the file from your pc to the max drive adaptor in your usb port... then load your software (if installed) and open your drive for your adaptor.. check that the filename on the adaptor matches the one you downloaded.
Close your software down and remove your adaptor.
Next load up your ps2 with ps2 max drive software cd.
your Memory card and adaptor should also be plugged in and ready to go. When you get to main screen go to my devices and select the adaptor make sure to leave it a few seconds.. well a minute or two.. because theres a magnifying glass that scans the adaptor as its reading (I.e it doesnt just show straight away).. next transfer/copy your data from adaptor to memory card..
Uncrush the files from your memory card and the data will now be availabe to use.. Also be aware that PES5 only supports one option file so you'll need to transfer your old option file to your max drive if you still want to keep it..
I hope this helps if not.. PM me.. i'll try and help all i can.. it isnt that complicated to work out .. although.. if its a system problem with windows.. then.. thats another thing entirely..
Au Revoir for now monsieur

Tried all of the above and still no luck :(

I am slowly getting frustrated i don't know what to do!

But one thing i would like to know is it essential you download the PC Software when you can actually see the max drive???

No, like I already said - you do not have to install it.

What is the full and complete name of the file you're trying to transfer? Is it .zip or .max or what?

Name of the file is MAX DRIVE PESFAN PES 5 V2 OF shop locked zero PES points.

It's a zip file.

Well there you go. You can only transfer .MAX files using a max drive. You need to unzip the .zip file to get the .max file out of it and then copy the .max file onto the max drive and all will work fine.

A zip file is a compressed file. Use winzip to unzip the zip file and get the .max file.

All you had to do was read through the Max Drive Questions thread in the Editing Questions section to find this answer. Or you could have gone to google and typed in "what is a zip file?"
