It shouldn't be hard at all IF you follow the instructions in this forum.

There are a few things you should be aware of before you start.

1) Make sure you get the correct update for your device - PE update for PE otherwise you WILL have big problems.

2) Test your download when you get it by opening it - if you get a message that says it is corrupt then download again.

3) If you use windows on your PC be careful when renaming the file to update.zip - windows by default does not show file extensions so you can end up with update.zip.zip which will not work.

4) If you use a USB stick make sure the update.zip is in the root directory and if it does not work first time check that it is formatted FAT or FAT32 - if that does not work try another stick.

5) Patience is a virtue.

6) If you do have problems ask here - pleas give a full description of what you did and what you saw, it helps us to help you (saying it didn't work does not help you or us).

7) Good updating.
