  • BFD ECO JEX kit NO BARGAIN at $10!

  I bought BFD ECO a while ago when it was on sale and like it fine. A few days ago I bought the JEX expansion kit on special for $10. It turned out to be no bargain. The install instructions that came with it were for BFD, not BFD ECO. Following the instructions to the letter, I installed the first of 3 packages, and the install screwed the directory on my samples hard drive. No fun there. I am now at the very beginning of a Windows status check on the hard drive; based on progress after the first hour, I expect this to take many, many hours. There are hundreds and hundreds of thousands of discrete files on that drive, and Windows wants to check them all. When I checked the BFD forum, I discovered that another buyer suffered difficulties on install, to which an FXPansion techie helpfully replied that there is really a different procedure for install. I suppose it's asking too much to expect that a vendor will include the correct install instructions with the product, or that following the vendor's instructions will not destroy one's equipment. However, I can definitely say that this $10 purchase was no bargain at all, and it will be a long, long time before I consider another offer from FxPansion.

Installed like a breeze for me.

Sorry you had a bad experience.

What do you think of it, Bapu? Give us your honest opinion about your ten dollars worth of kit.... The last ten dollars I spent was a disappointing adventure in folly.

Have not had a chance to check it out yet. I know I'll use one of those kits soon though.

It's £7 in real money.

I've downloaded it but not installed yet.

£8 when I bought it. 
Anyway, mine installed seamlessly. Looks like you've just had some bad luck, lightninrick.
 
Having played around with Jex a bit... I'm glad it was on offer ;-)

JEX installed perfectly without a single hitch.

Sounds like lightninrick has something else going on with his system somewhere

Got upon a city bus!  
That's exactly why my names Nadine! My father loved the song so much, & respected Berry's lyrics in general. Although dad spent many frustrating years demanding everyone to stop using the french pronunciation.
 
Oh, & I never thought you were a perv, yorolpal. Heh heh, no... no I didn't.
