    Firmware upgrade trouble

    I'm trying to upgrade my firmware but.... I don't have the hyperterminal program on my PC, is there a place where I can get it or a way to go around it?

    Kyle,

    What operating system are you running?

      Are you sure you don't have hyperterminal? Do you have the windows CDRom?

        I'm running ME, and yes I have the windows cd but I think it just reinstalls.

          Just making sure you looked on the start menus, under "Accessories" and then "Communication"?

            Nope it's not there, well kinda not. There's a folder named hyperterminal but there's nothing in it.

              Ah good old ME :roll: The bastard child of MS's OS's :LOL: If you put the CD into your CDROM drive and then goto the control panel and click Add Remove programs you should see a button on the right to add windows components. Click that and then you'll have to navigate though the menu's looking for hyperterminal (its likely under communications or something).

                      Are you talking about the switches you have to flip to do the upgrade? If you have the 1066, it's on the back panel directly to the left of the component video section, in the upper right quadrant of the rear panel. It says Software Upgradable right above it.

                            by hamiltong
                            Hi Folks,

                            First attempts for firmware upgrade.. not so successful..

                            I cannot get the HyperTerminal program (OS included version or Private Edition) to establish communications with the 1068.

                            I've followed the instructions to the letter.. Back panel power...

                            I've been trying to do a firmware upgrade to my Rotel 1098 for a while and keep running into the same problem; I can't input anything via HyperTerminal. Evertime I'm prompted to input 1, 2 , or 3, I cant type anything.

                            I'm using a PC running XP, however, I changed the compatability of...

                            by Glenn
                            Yesterday I purchased my brand new RSP-1068 I am currently surrounded by wires, cables, manuals etc hoping to soon have everything up and running. While the dealer stated that more than likely this unit would have the latest firmware already installed, upon powering up just now I see it came...

                            by chamath
                            I would like to share my 2nd upgrade experience with you so hopefully you would not run into the same issues I had. I have a Rotel RSX-1057; however, the issue described below would apply to any upgrade as it was not a Rotel problem.

                            Firmware: (1057)
                            my system = 2.1.2

                            by amitsharma75
                            I seem to have an issue trying to upgrade my firmware for the RSX-1067. I have made all necessary connections and hyperterminal adjustments per the website. However the issue is that the upgrade process seems to have stopped midwar and seems to just sit there doing nothing. I have tried this like 3...
