Brass67 Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Anyone in the San Fernando valley (I'm in North Hollywood) that might be able to lend a hand with a computer that has Windows 7 or later to upgrade my Black Screened Helix? I was hoping someone that doesn't yet have one but wanted to try it out before buying could do this. Help flow in both directions eh😀 Let me know, Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawwuf Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 If you bought it locally, I would try the store you got it from. If not perhaps a music repair place would let you use one for a nominal fee. Might want to invest in W7 or above if you plan on keeping the unit :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass67 Posted November 5, 2015 Author Share Posted November 5, 2015 Got it from zzounds. It doesn't make enough sense for me to get W7 (besides this issue) as I haven't used my computer in many months (and don't really plan to use it much if any). I also don't necessarily need to always upgrade the Helix as I liked it fine but just need the Black Screen thing fixed. Would really like to let someone demo the unit (with their own guitar, amps and speakers etc.) in exchange for an upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

napynap Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 If you can't find anyone, meet me at Sagebrush Cantina, Calabasas this Saturday night 11/7/2015. I can bring my W7 laptop and we can try to upgrade it. PM me if you want to set that up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass67 Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 Hey thanks for the offer!! I did find someone willing to do it though. I'll admit embarrassingly the person is my roommate...doh!!! The computer's been sitting there all along Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
