Pioneer DVR-109 Firmware Upgrade Problem

[TechnoTim]

I am trying to upgrade the firmware on my Pioneer DVR-109 to version 1.57, but when I run the UPGR109 executable I get an message saying "Available target is not found".

I am running XP with SP1.

Any help would be appreciated...

Is the drive recognized in My Computer? If not uninstall and re-install it , after checking proper connection and settings to the drive.
If it is recognized by the Computer, then make sure you are logged on as Administrator; turn off all running program Anti virus , screen savers etc.
And try the update again.

Hi Liquidlen,

The drive is recognised in My Computer.

I have disabled the antivirus software and screensaver and run the upgrade application, but I am still getting the same error message.

I will try un-installing and re-installing the drive to see if that makes a difference.

Thanks,

Tim
