My Nook Color has the 1.0.1 update.

I have followed the NookDev steps word for word, using the auto-nooter-2.12.25.img file. When I get to the point of power down, plug in uSD, then plug usb cable into my computer, it does the expected light flash on the cable, it pops up the windows device installer screen (which I cancel out of). I also get a popup on from the task icon area saying device was not installed correctly and may not work property, which I assume is also fine, as it is related to the lack of drivers being installed. Then it just sits there, black screen. I have left if there for up to an hour (although one post said it should only take 45 seconds).

I saw another post saying that his did not reboot on its own, so he manually rebooted and worked fine. I tried this. Nothing works. Each time, when I unplug, remove the SD card, and reboot, it just boots up as if I hadn't done anything. No different splash screen, no change. I tried factory reset and deregister, but still the same result.

Why won't the root work?

Help please.
