Sandy, I'm curious but starting a few betas ago after installing the firmware upgrade it says that the firmware is updated and then you hear a couple more messages like updating messages.

Glad it is working again for you. At 11:55 AM 2/14/2005 -0600, you wrote: >No I didn't. I honestly don't know what happened. I didn't press any keys >after disconnecting the BP.
