The only way i found to fix it was to do what post#6 says. I downloaded the update program, unzipped and made the changes to the file. Like I think you already tried.

Then I ran the updater FIRST on the computer - THEN when it was looking for a reader i hooked it up to my reader. It found the reader no problem and started doing the update by itself.

The one think i did notice is the first time my power was also low - so even this failed. I suggest having the reader plugged in to the wall when doing this.

To recap - download the update and fix the file as per instructions in post #6.

Double click the update program on the computer. You will have to accept the agreement then you will get to the menu you took a picture of.

Plug your reader into the wall electrical outlet. Then, turn the Reader on so it gets to the starting up screen (it actually goes beyond that - but it cannot find the right fonts to draw more screens).

Now - and only now - plug the USB cord into the reader. The computer should establish a connection and update itself back to its original state.

That's what worked for me...

Good Luck!

Thanks , I tried , but not woking

What should I do , send it to SONY to repair ?
