have unzipped the file, its sitting on the desktop under the name ev_2_fix_140408. when i click on this file. it opens to reveal a bin file with the same name followed by core_070506. when i click on this file it is opened with ms word viewer. it then displys in a small box file conversion followed by the file name. it then asks me to select the encoding that makes your document readable, is this right? the words in the document are totally garbled no matter which encoding i use. confused pls help

the ev2 file is a bin file no ufl (unified loader) so you need to extract it then load it into dnupman.Read the idiots guide thread

When you click on the name ev_2_fix_140408 and it opens, you need to highlight the bin file and click on the Extract button and save the bin file to your PC.

Next you need to follow the instructions on the second post here REQ: Idiots Guide To Updating Firmware On Eurovox Max

well i saw a guide here that showed pictures of how to distinguish btw a clone and an original with a warning that the firmware might brick the clone box, I've checked mine and its similar to the pic of the clone box, thats why i ask. You sure i could use the 18/04/08 firmware?

I'm not aware of any clone safe firmware for the MaxV. If you are going to try the 18/4/08 firmware, be careful as it could brick the box (not straight away but after a few days).
