u can boot cromwell on bank 2, put a 512 kb bios and a dummy file on a cd and pop that in and that will re-flash bank 1.

you have always been able to do this, if you screw up a bank you use the other and fix it.  cool.gif

the programmer is used if both banks have a bad flash, its the only way other than hot swaping to fix it.

I did the same thing, I got a FRAG on my bank 1.

From what I understand the switch only selects what bank to boot from, not which one to flash to. It will automatically flash bank 1, kind of like filling a glass it starts from the bottom up.

Anyway, if you want to recover bank 1 this is what I did: I just grabbed the cromwell flashbios from here:

http://www.teamxecut...wdownload&cid=2

I just used Nero and copied it to a disk along with a dummy file. Booted on Bank 2, loaded my disk, and when it shut off I switched back to bank 1 and Cromwell came back fine.

Now if I could just get an x2 bios flash to work... :\
