Well, I'm not Chris, but I can give the link to the message from John I referred to earlier in a similar email thread. Although, I have no idea if this would work on an mPower, and again this process doesn't leave any of your own files on the flash disk, as everything goes back to factory defaults.
Also while we're on this subject, when Dean Jackson very nicely called me and helped me with this the first time, the time I inadvertently hung up on him and he very graciously called me back, we didn't use that visual display program; but, rather, we just when to the hyper terminal program and created the connection, and we also used no flow control. I'm thinking, though, that when I tried to bring my flash disk back on my own, I was merely turning off the PK before holding down the escape and then turning it back on, meaning I was missing the step about the c1 and c4 turning on instead. So, thanks to John as well as to Dean for the steps to take care of this. Now, for the link I mentioned earlier, and it is a long one: http://list.humanware.com/archives/braillenote/2006-August/053933.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christopher Hallsworth" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Braillenote List" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, November 28, 2006 2:55 AM Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Hyperterminal Access to Braillenote Information Would you mind sharing those commands with us please?
