Also when I mount via USB it shows two drives, one called READER. do I put it in the root of this Reader drive?
Yes, as I wrote above, you have to unzip the updater.exe file (it is a self-extracting zip file), and copy over the file called "PRS-T1 Updater.package" that is in the zip file. You can use any unzip program to unpack the downloaded file. The READER folder is the one to copy to.
