Hello All,
I have a serious Problem withh an xp1000.
Never had any problems with a firmware-update i wanted to that
for on a xp1000 ( first time ).
Unfortunately I have the Firmware 5.8 CD put in
and found later that some things were splitted there for the xp1000
I run the update and confirmed the Version and did a verify
which passed also - but after a cycle reset i can't get the srm - prompt
again ...
Can someone help me - can I somehow reset the console for to do the
Update again , or do a downgrade ?
Thanks in advance !
Rainer
