Darkwing Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I am not really keen on updating with this software that constantly stops working. Should I take the gamble or wait for the updated software to be released? :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Go to the Corsair LINK 2 root folder and right click> run as admin Sierra2.Bootloader.exe Does it crash? If it doesn't you can choose to update the FW or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutz94 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Depends darkwing, if your unit is running fine then there is no need to update the FW. ONLY if your haveing trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpenj Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 What is the correct process for doing this? Does anything need to be uninstalled, other than deleting any profiles and rebooting first? I'm going to need to do it, and will probably do so this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 The process for updating the FW is on the sticky. Note: Before you do this update please delete any saved Profiles and load the default profile and reboot the system and let the Link software stand running for at least 1 whole Minuit before you proceed with the Update. The Cooler will also have to be connected to the included Link USB Dongle and cannot be updated when connected to the Corsair Link Commander.

carpenj Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 The process for updating the FW is on the sticky. I saw that, just wanted to be sure there wasn't anything else I needed to know. Last time I did a FW update, my unit got bricked due to something not mentioned in the sticky so I'm paranoid now haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 If there was any other important things that needed to be noted it would have been in the sticky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remotehugger Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I just flashed the new FW about 10 minutes ago - No problems at all - I extracted the FW zip to my desktop - deleted any saved profiles and clicked restore defaults - rebooted - opened CL and let it run for about 2 minutes - clicked update FW - navigated to the FW file on my desktop - opened it - and flashed away ! Everything works as it did before the flash - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apacheizm23 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 If you got a new unit why are you flashing it.. U just said it yourself that you bricked it for flashing. I guess allot of us tech people just love tinkering around with things even if its not broken. By the way I've decided to purchase 2 Corsair Force Series 120 GiG SSD GT I made up my mind.
