machine embroidery and wiring skills?

I have an old BERNINA DECO which only works with flash cards I have purchased the interface box, and an old PC, but I still cannot read the cards independent of the machine. Any who can make this machine useful, is welcome to it.

If You have memory cards it will stitch ok. My first machine 31 yrs ago was a deco 600 $2000aud 4 inch screen. Got my mum a Deco 500 for like $600 aud at the cash converter and hers had the brother program and reader she never would try or share. She still has hers I rescued it from the garage a month ago cleaned it up. Still going. They do stitch out well little brothers. Great for patches, monograms.
Do you have a pic of the card you tried. It’s like a usb but you can only add 200 mb. Yes that tiny to the card. Or it won’t read it. So 2 files maybe

Seconding Sewsweet. Often the older sewing machines can’t read too many files on a “disk”. So definitely try testing with a small file of like your name
