Hi there

I'm a newbie, and I've got a question that should be pretty simple for anyone who has updated their own mr8 before.
Here's my problem: I have an mr8 and a new 512 card that's supposed to be compatible. Of course, when i try to send between my pc and the mr8 i get an error message. That's what the software update is supposed to fix, right? Well now my problem is i cant find out how to get the update from the pc to the recorder. I found all the right links and can get the file, but i can't open up the read me file for some reason about the incompatible Japanese characters or something.

I guess all i really need is instructions on how to send the software update from my pc and put it on the recorder.

any help will be much appreciated.
 
update

the update comes with a pdf file that tells you how to do it , if you have win 98 you will need a card reader,

its been along time but i think you just copy the file onto the 128 original card, and start the mr8 hooked up by the usb,

im my case i just copied the file to the cf card, inserted the card and started the mr 8
 
I used a CF card reader to copy the update to my card and then ran it from the card. At the time I was running Windows 98SE. Now I have updated my computer with XP on a second drive but I have not yet tried to use the USB mode on the MR-8.
