If this is happening and you have new diskettes it is sounding very much like your diskette drive needs replacing.
Easiest and cheapest solution is to get yourself an external USB diskette drive like this:-

Very cheap too!!!

Good luck

It will NOT erase your hard disk - it clears the SSD (solid State Disk) which clears all factory data (styles/sounds etc..)

Sorry, but what is your problem with MIDI files?
I don't understand???

The OS install using Intro ! will clear your internal factory data ready to be re-installed.
This has absolutely nothing to do with your hard drive or MIDI files.

Or... have we gotten into 2 different issues here.

Just trying to understand...

Before i bought keyboard she wnt to one man to make her for playing MIDI files and he change something. He make that the keyboard pull sounds from set not from factory and when i change a set the some instruments are not playing: drum, bass, solo... When i whant to play a MIDI file i must do Full resource restore. When restorinng finsih she load that set which is that man load in keyboard when is making she for playing MIDI files. That set awful for live playing.
I hope you understand me.

OK I think I understand.

Your issue is with the MIDI files - if these were created or originally mapped to PA1X non factory styles then you MUST get hold of the "SET" from the source PA1X.
Otherwise you will have to edit your MIDI files and re-map the sounds. There really isn't another way.

Talk to whoever had the MIDI files originally and working fine on a PA1X and ask for the "SET" from that keyboard - this should solve your problem - nothing to do with the PA1X at all.
Reloading factory resources is exactly that so if your MIDIs use stock factory PA1X sounds then they should be fine BUT if they use USER sounds then you MUST get hold of the USER banks of sounds that were appropriate for these MIDIs
