Originally posted by UncleVanya I would also try “no”. It’s possible the highlighting is backwards.
Tried that too. I tried every button on the camera to see if it would start the update but no luck.
I don’t know if I’m just screwed or whether I should try to find a camera store and see if they know what to do.

Originally posted by vonBaloney Interesting. I would try formatting the card *in the camera* -- "NO NAME" is indicating to me it was probably formatted elsewhere. (Copy any pictures you want to save to somewhere else first obviously). And then re-copying the firmware file to it, and try again.
I reformatted it to make sure and it still says “no name” and it’s empty.

Originally posted by Sandy Hancock Is the *.bin file in the root directory, or the DCIM directory? I'm not sure what the screenshot is telling me.
It needs to be in the root directory of the SD card. I'm not sure if it matters at all whether the DCIM directory is empty or not....
It’s in the root directory

According to my indexing program, I've got a copy of v2.00 from 2006 on an archive. I could make this available as a "share" somewhere if it might be useful.
This would have been used to update my camera, which has subsequently been updated to v2.02.
Obviously, although I believe there to be no problems with my copy, I'll not be taking responsibility for any perceived issues resulting from using it.
I was thinking the same thing. It might just be too much of a update leap.
