Try all the different SoftJTAG versions. Some of them get different results with different peoples systems.

Also make sure that you have downloaded the J# Runtime.

Google: J# Runtime

Yeh mate i have that installed aswell still the same. Lol i will try version 3.01 and see how i get on. I tried installing 2.0 net framework aswell but it wont let me install it says i already have it but not sure if its the right one. Its my first attempt at flashing wee hee think i might have a brick soon but since i only payed £1 for the modem with the power brick im not too bothered all part of the learning process i guess.

You can't mess it up if you follow the instructions.

It's pretty fool proof as long as you take your time.
