I am trying to help a friend out and I took his multi board to do the firmware update on it. It was one of the original launch multis. I did the discovery programming and it went fine, it said it programmed it. I then loaded the new firmware and it took it fine I believe. The file is now gone from the root. However, now when I try to write a new game it just crashes? The screen on the arcade machine goes to a scrolling pattern. The screen on the multi no longer responds to key presses. It doesn't ever say Flash Writing and show the *** progress. On boot up it does say programming key though, so I am reasonably sure the firmware is updated.
I was able to use another multi to verify the sd card is working as intended. I also experimented with setting the NOW_PLAY and NOW_KEY files with the second multi. When I use any decrypted rom I can boot the multi to a phoenix rom that was already loaded onto it. I guess the problem is that it can't write a new rom to itself?
