Ok, but, shaking my own head, why do we have to install the software that comes with it? So do we do this, and then the other firmware overrides it? I don't remember needing sighted help for that software. So I should have the USB connected then... Hmmmm. I just don't remember this from a year ago. Sorry. Smile... Thanks. All the best!

Oh, I hope I am telling you correctly. It has been so long since I've done this. I think you have to go ahead and install the software that comes on the CD. Please do this with sighted help. Make your life much easier. After you've done that, go find upgrade firmware, follow the instructions using the file you downloaded, and when done, get that crummy software off your computer. That should do it.
