XRGB-3 firmware updating problems

[Madtea]

I tried to update my new XRGB-3 to the english firmware but my win7 pc doesn't seem to be able to recognize it. Ive tried unplugging and re-plugging it in and even trying it on another computer with winxp but nothing seems to work. HELP PLEASE!

It doesn't work with Win 7. I think you need XP.

Could you give a step by step list of things you tried? (e.g. 1. Plug XRGB into PC using USB cable, ... ect).

What version of Win7 are you using (32-bit or 64-bit)?

Have you tried using a different USB cable?

What is your current firmware version?

It doesn't work with Win 7. I think you need XP.

I recently installed Win7 (32-bit) and just tried installing the XRGB-3 via USB. All good so far... perhaps there's a USB driver issue with 64-bit editions..?

1. Connect XRGB-3 to power
2. Connect USB connection on XRGB-3 to PC USB input (A to B cable)
3. Press the power button on XRGB-3 to initiate device enumeration and driver installation
4. Open device manager (devmgmt.msc)
5. Verify device installation (installed as HID-compliant device)

Are there any precautions to take when updating a brand new xrgb3 to English?

[Fudoh]

no, but while you're at it, don't forget to update with the B1 firmware as well in case you want to use scanlines.

no, but while you're at it, don't forget to update with the B1 firmware as well in case you want to use scanlines.

So Japanese v.1.00 firmware first, then English v.2.12firmware?

B1 is not a default option then?

[zak]

Also,

on the wiki it says: "B0 firmware v.2.12 (english) (Needs Japanese firwmare updater installed)"

Where do I get this from?

[Fudoh]

yes, I'd install japanese B1 first and then the english FW.

You can get all the installers from the Micomsoft download page.

I just bought an xrgb3 and it was all in JApanese and I think I have just bricked it using a japanese installer (I just clicked the icons what I thought would update it!)

Now when I turn it on there's nothing onscreen.

Does anyone know how I can get it working with an English firmware? I'd be eternally grateful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
