Just tried updating my maximus avr usb 1.2 32kb and managed to brick it sad.gif  
I must have flashed the wrong hex or something, now I cant get it recognised no mater what I do. Iv read up a bit and apparently there is a problem with the bootloader now the only way to fix it is with a PICKIT 2 OR 3 programmer mad.gif
Does anyone know an easier way maybe programe it with a db25 cable or something huh.gif

Lucky for me I ordered from teensy.co.uk they have agreed to replace it biggrin.gif
Some other stores are charging to fix it even if you bought from them  grr.gif

Thanks sam wink.gif

Fix isnt so hard, all you have to do is manage where are ISP points at avr (i don't know what avr is used there, if you know i will tell were are that points), and solder it to db25 and you can reprogram it smile.gif
