    As I have said to numerous people, there are major issues with Vista, can you get hold of a PC with XP its so much easier!!

    If you listen to the lads you`ll be sorted.
    As karl said, the firmw@re for the SV3 is a unified loader (you dont need GTRom).

    Des has told you to try xp as sometimes people have trouble with vista when trying to flash boxes.
