Tried the 3 firmware from their site, none boot

Help please

Hi labzuk

I assume you've watched the firmware update video on the cool-er firmware page and still had no luck - I just wanted to check that you've extracted the firmware correctly to the sd card.
You need to unzip/unrar the file that you download so that you can see the files
Code:
ap   dev      etc    font   home  linuxrc     mnt  proc  sbin  tmp  var
bin  ebrmain  files  fonts  lib   lost+found  pic  root  sys   usr
on your sd card as soon as you click on it.
Some zip/rar programs automatically extract to a directory of the same name as the file e.g. when you extract cooler_vfat_1.12.9_1119.rar it would create a folder for cooler_vfat_1.12.9_1119 on your sd card which would contain those files/directories listed above. If it has done this, you need to move these.

Good luck getting your reader working again.
