Mr.V, nothing in life is 100% but death and taxes, but you know you want to do it.......
When you do a backup dump you only get a partial Firmware file not all files are extracted and if it really goes south you may need a full version firmware to recover. Some players come with a backup copy on the CD but most do not.
So here are the possibilities.
1. You could flash your player and get a message telling you the firmware is incompatible and your player will be exactly the same.
2. You could flash it everything could goes well and you end up with 2 more mind numbing games.
3. Flash, oops player won't run but is not completely cactus, re-flash with your backup and you are back to square one.
4. Flash, meltdown player not even recognised by windows can't flash, panic, cry, kick the cat and spend the next 2 weeks of your life looking for a fix, pulling your player apart shorting out your chip to reset, find a full firmware version thats compatible with your player and if you have been nice to everyone all your life and Karma smiles on you the unit is restored and you can once again play Russian Roulette.
5. This one you have not been kind to others all your life so you put it in the bin and buy a new one that has 3 games.
So which pill will you take Neo the red one or the blue one .......
