Many many thanks for walking me through with this Butters!

I understood meanwhile that I need to follow a procedure that looks like this:

  1. Determine HWID as explained (it is 2267).
  2. Download latest version: DriveandDriveSmart40_50_590.gcd.
  3. Use RGN_Tool and convert GCD to RGN.
  4. Rename resulting file to: 226701000590.rgn
  5. Use Updater.exe to flash RGN in preboot mode.
  6. Use IMGPatcher_2.20 to patch fw_all.bin
  7. Update this fw_all.bin


Your previous advice made me succeed in the above steps 1 to 5. So far so good!

Now, for the last 2 actions I am stuck with two questions I did not manage to find an a clear answer for on GPSPower:

  1. I got the IMGPatcher_2.20, but I have no idea where to get or how to produce the fw_all.bin file
  2. I am not sure which program to upload it with after patching.



Apologize for being a persistent nuisance... at least my unit is functioning ok so far! :-)
