The problem is that Windows doesn't handle removable media with multiple partitions properly. That means that if you put the SD card into a Windows machine, you won't be able to write the files you need to the partition. Both Macs and Linux machines can do this. You can try booting the PC from a Linux live USB stick and accessing the card that way.

I have downloaded the firmware, it is a zip file, after unzipping it, what files would I have to copy to the sd?
All of them. The contents of the firmware update file is to be put into the .kobo directory of the books partition.
