In preparation for Spring break diving in Grand Cayman, I attempted last night to update the firmware on my Cobalt using my home pc w/ Vista OS. After following the instructions on Atomic's website to the letter, I wound up with a "dark" Cobalt, unresponsive to input.
Scubaboard is a great resource. After reading through this thread, I found a link Ron had provided for instructions on how to fix a failed/corrupt firmware update. Following those instructions, I was able to update the firmware on the Cobalt and all appears to be well. I did have to re-key my preferences, etc - but that's no big deal.
Thanks, Ron for keeping this string current & providing links & advice when issues do arise.
I appreciate it !

Thanks. I'm curious about your needing to re enter preferences. After a reset, the Cobalt should revert to the preferences, user name, etc. as of the last dive in the log. You will always need to reset the time, though. Were your settings changed after the last dive?
