Hi Bob thanks for the reply Ive already tried the manufactures web site and
the update is a flash firm ware which fails when I try to install it as for
the OEM I'm an unfortunate customer of Evesham Technology who went bust in
January and the new owners will not honour existing warranties so I dont have
an OEM to talk to,
