How do I install ROM objects onto my K2661?
Installing new Objects requires a hard reset which will clear all user memory. Please be sure to back up any personal data before proceeding.
The K2661 receives its updates through through either SmartMedia Card or SCSI (hard disk or CDROM). To install an Object File(s) in your 2661 you will first need to copy the Object file(s) onto either one of these mediums. The simplest approach will be a SmartMedia drive as they are readily and inexpensively available from a variety of electronics and computer retailers.
1. Turn on the K2661.
2. When you see “Please wait…” press and release the Exit button
3. Once the “Boot Block Main” page loads, press INSTALL
4. The K2661 will display a screen that lets you indicate the device from which you are installing. Use the alpha wheel to select either SMedia OR the appropriate SCSI ID (if you are installing from an external SCSI device). Press OK
5. Locate and select ALL of the Object Files pertinant to your units configuration. This includes the K61v100.K26 Base Objects file (included here) IN ADDITION to any Option ROM Files required by your unit. Anytime you alter or update your ROM Objects, all pertinant Object files must be installed simultaneously, regardless if they were ever previously installed. You can select multiple files in this screen simply by highlighting them one at a time and pressing [SELECT]. Each selected file will be marked by an asterisk (*). Press OK.
6. When the load is complete, press the DONE soft button.
7 . Press the RESET soft button and follow the prompts (pressing YES twice).
8. The unit will reboot.

Offer applies only to single-receipt qualifying purchases. Select manufacturers may require that only the manufacturer’s products qualify towards the minimum purchase amount needed to be eligible for promotional financing. Otherwise, an invoice that meets the minimum purchase amount and contains at least one qualifying manufacturer product is eligible for promotional financing. No interest will be charged on promo purchase balance, and equal monthly payments are required on promo purchase until it is paid in full. The payments equal the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next whole dollar. These payments may be higher than the payments that would be required if this purchase was a non-promo purchase. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to the prior months’ rounding. Regular account terms apply to non-promo purchases. New Accounts as of 07/31/2025: Purchase APR is 34.99%. Penalty APR is 39.99%. Min Interest Charge is $2. Existing cardholders: See your credit card agreement terms. Subject to credit approval.

The estimated required monthly payment shown which excludes taxes and delivery equals the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next cent. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to this rounding. These payments apply only with the financing offer shown. If you make these payments by the due date each month, you should pay off this amount financed within the promo period, if it is the only balance you are paying off. If you have other balances on your account, this payment will be added to any other minimum monthly payments.
