Unboxed an ACDC Premium LE tonight and followed all the steps correctly to update the code from 1.5 to 1.52 (or so I thought); here's the roadbock:

1. Went to the Stern Library and downloaded the new 1.52 code and tried saving it both ways (first as a Compressed Zipped folder then later as All Files).

2. Flipped the DIP switch in position 8 to On, hit the reset button, and selected Update Game Code.

3. Inserted the USB memory stick with the new code but the DMD reads Update Not Found (on both attempts of saving the files per above).

Never done this (first NIB), what's going on/what do I do (as Chas is eating Dinner at the moment I suppose; and I really want to play this Mean Machine tonight with the updated code) ?

TIA.

Quoted from tvbenk:

Put the .bin file in the root of the USB memory stick.

That's apparently what's in there; just copied the file and it says:

ACD_152L.BIN

Quoted from Benaar:

Try plugging in the USB stick before powering on the game. That's what I needed to do on TF-LE.

Will give that a shot.

Thanks.

Quoted from Mando:

DO you use a Mac or Windows machine? Wondering if its formatted incorrectly?

Windows (PC said it found the drivers).

Thanks.

Just tried that (and saved the update both ways: as All Files & Compressed
Zipped Folder)--same results: Update Not Found?

Crap.

Quoted from DCfoodfreak:

I had to Make sure I moved it to the USB , then in the USB unzip it. That made all the difference

Just unzipped it...same result: Update Not Found!

Quoted from jalpert:

The system is picky about the thumbdrive, try a different one.

OK will give that a shot; thanks.

Thanks guys; for some reason all the attempts failed--and I took Mandelbloom's advice and just decided to rock all night on 1.5.

What a game.

Time to unplug & call Chas in the morning.

Will let y'all know what the problem is tomorrow--many thanks to all the First Responders and all the help tonight!

Pinside Rocks!

Quoted from Av8:

Congrats. How's do u like it?

Weird problem. Never heard of that issue.

Thanks Av8; initial critique: blown away by the game thus far--appears to be another Richie masterpiece: an adrenaline rush of sight and sound.

Will get back on the problem this afternoon.

Thanks again guys.

Update: problem solved.

Don't really know what the specific variable was that made it work this time, but I just deleted everything off the stick and started from scratch and followed everyone's pointers.

Anyway, thanks to all!
