Hi, all.
Well, I tried it again right after I posted last, and again it was no go. Then I turned the wrong direction and ended up in bed for nearly a month. Chronic pain and spinal issues. Pretty much slept a month away. So today I am moving again, and I sat down and tried three more times to reflash, but I still end up with nothing. I have a sick feeling I was ripped off on this guitar. I guess that's what I get for going through E-Bay. I did try everything posted here, but it just does nothing. I still have nothing but rows of question marks where model names should be in the HD Workbench (see image above). I tried installing the old workbench but it refuses to run. Not sure why I'm so technically challenged, but nothing seems to work and the frustration level is pretty bad. I'll try talking to the service department and see how much it'd be to just have it repaired and be done with it. I appreciate all the advice, though. It's nice to know there are good people here who help.
