Hi all,

I see that the Updater appears to run in Windows environment but the manual says the updater and BIOS must be copied to a USB and run in a DOS environment.

Can I run in Windows or is that a bad idea?

Hello

Run the updater from within Windows. There is a thread that is stickied in this section (linked below) detailing the proper use of the file.

Do what Praz and the sticky thread say. It worked for me.
