S11 is correct. Shut down your PC. Wait a few seconds. Reboot. You didn't follow the instructions I guess.

Its working now that I tried it today, I did shut the computer off along with removing power and usb from it for about 30 seconds right after I flashed it yesterday and it wouldn't read it at all. I guess that wasn't long enough
Thanks for your help Cooper

So? And these files are not supposed to be public. Anyone beware to make them! There are really good reasons that they aren't.
And you: If you are too cheap to spend a couple of bucks to show your interest and appreciation- forget it.

Coop, you can always stop sending it to people!!! Blackened asked us not to share it with anyone else anyway.
