    Lethal--

    I am trying to install Rockbox.

    When I go to start-->run, then type cmd then press enter, the black box pops up but then immediately disappears. Why is this?

    I tried restarting my Computer and the same problem still occurs. (the command prompt opens and then immediately closes) Is there anything else that I could do to fix this?

    Can you delete it if you don't want it anymore. So it would look like nothing happened, or will it have something perminant so apple will know you modded and void the warrenty? Also once I do the tutorial I should get a lot of games or do I have to download the games (can I download more games?) Also do you have a tutorial to uninstall it? Thanks, I just want to be sure I don't have a $400 door stop.

    I'm pretty sure that if you restore the iPod with an un-modded updater, then it will put the iPod back into factory condition, but I would wait for Lethal to second that before you do something. ;-)

    Jazo, are you trying to access the command prompt at work, or under a non-admin name on windows? The command prompt might be disabled, and could explain why it is suddenly closing.

    I am trying to do it on an admin account using Windows XP on my computer at home. ;-)

    Hey Lethal man, first off id just like to say i love what you're doing here, keep up the good work. I just have one little problem...im unsure as to how i find out what version firmware i have? It's related to the iPod Updater isnt it? if thats the case i have the latest one downloaded but i dont know whether its 1.1.1 or 1.1 or 1.0. Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thank You

    Hey lethal man i have a small problem, it relates back to your second tutorial...with changing fonts, i tried to select OTF and it said 'No OpenType Fonts found in this firmware', does that mean i need to use a different version or am i doin something else wrong?
    Scratch that it worked straight after i posted, i dont know what was wrong but i just closed iPod wizard and opened it and there was no error.
    Can anyone give me a link toa good super mario font?
    thanks
