Firmware Update Tool V1.7 ISO file

idata — Sat, 29 Jan 2011 14:26:09 GMT

Hello, I'm a new user of X25-M 80GB SSD drive.

Today I got a V1.7 ISO file, 011102M388208850.ISO and burned it on a CD-ROM media. After changing SATA to IDE mode, I did a cold boot of my PC. But error messages are shown.

Is this ISO file corrupted? I tried some times (inc. IE cache clear), all are same.

My PC has a H55 express chipset and Windows 7 works fine on this SSD.

ISO file size was 3,942,400 bytes.

I can't help on that error message, but assuming you have correctly imaged the firmware do you have a BIOS option for Compatible and Enhanced in the IDE mode settings? If so try Compatible. If that does not work try to update from a different PC if you can. It's worth the update

if you have a dos bootable usb flash drive, you can extract issdfut.exe from the iso (7-zip can do this), put it on the flash drive, boot from it, and update it that way.

For some weird reason I was not able to do that with this f/w version. Previously it has worked, but this time I got a "not enough memory" message. Maybe just a quirk on my mobo. The CD image worked no problem.

Enter the full shell command line:

In order for the update tool to work you must change any and all SATA controllers to IDE even if your SSD is not on that SATA controllers port this is because the tool scans all ports.

Intel makes scary update tools as I did three SSD's in a row with the last one finished the bottom half of the screen fills with random characters but lucky didn't do any harm after restarting.

redux, mistermokkori and PeterUK,

thank you for your good advices.

Finally, I can not boot a firmware CD from both of IDE-attached and USB-attached DVD-ROM drives. No SATA-attached DVD-ROM drive in my home.....Intel recommends this.... Today I got a USB FD drive and made a DOS boot diskette. I can update a SSD to V1.7 firmware successfully!

Hellow! I was in toruble just like same of your's. But, I've solved it. how to...

Reconnect and change Motherboard port No. of Optical drive

For example, change (your optical drive )port 6 to port 1.

Try it.
