Hi,

Note this process is not easy if you have no sight, since the prompts when
updating the firmware are not spoken.

All the best

Steve

blue screen problem

Ok, fair enough.
For anyone having this particular issue, do the following:
If you're radio refuses to switch on, keep plugging/unplugging the
cable to the radio. I know it sounds stupid, but on several attempts,
it works.
Then, when you have your radio powered up, you'll have to upgrade the
firmware. To do this, you'll need a USB cable type A to type B, which
sell at about £2.50 or similar. I personally got mine from Ebay -
they're not hard to find.
When you've got a cable, insert one end into the slot on your radio,
and the other end into a free USB port on your PC. Next, download the
1.1 firmware (either male or female - it's up to you), from the
following link:
http://support.pure.com/files.php?s=802c44789083ddd64a36b9c4871d9299&id=47
Open the downloaded file, and follow the on-screen prompts until your
radio has been upgraded.
Finally, switch off your radio from the plug and switch it back on,
and you should see that your problem has been solved.
Note: if the 1.1 firmware is already installed, simply overwrite it.
Cheers, and I hope I've helped someone here.
