I'll assume that you have not overlooked something like the file is set to read only. Make sure that all file names and paths conform to the DOS 8.3 naming convention. Outside of this, the only other thing that I can think of is that it may be looking for a 2nd file that you missed placing in the …

Nothing says that Marvin can't include non-PC hardware. It is about vintage hardware. Why not Macs, Amigas, Apples, Ataris, C64s, consoles, etc.

From what I had heard at the time, Apple held the patent and other manufacturers had to license it from an overzealous Apple. If I am remembering correctly,Sony did not even call theirs Firewire.
