Comments:
Special hint on firmware upgrading error
Some customers report that they received an error code "-1073741515" when they try to upgrade the firmware to the latest version, this is caused by compatibility between GUI software and Microsoft .net edition. The previous edition GUI (2.2b or older) is designed to run under .net 3.5, it doesn't compatible with .net 4, if your .net is upgraded to version 4 (.net upgrading could be done automatically without your acknowledge ), there are two methods can resolve this issue:
Method 1:
Download the latest 2.3b4 version GUI software, then you can flash with official firmware, this version GUI already support .net 4.0.
or Method 2:
Use official recommended software Xloader, you can download the Xloader from official website, when use this tool, when you click "upload", you may receive a message "Upload failed", this is because the main board is rebooted, and actually the upgrading is success, you can check the latest firmware version with your parameter review software.
