Hiya,
is there a section where I can update my firmware on the digidesign site?? Can't seem to find it!

thank you

for what? If you're looking for the mbox firmware, it can be found here:

www.digidesign.com/download/mbox/

sorry,
I'm looking for the firmware update for the 002RACK.

thanks

I don't believe there is one, at least I haven't heard of it.

You don't need to download anything - the software is already on your computer and needs to be downloaded to the 002.

How do you do it then? Every time I start up my digi it says I need to update the firmware, and gives me two buttons. One that says 'download', and the other I think says 'later'. Doesn't matter if I'm online or anything. I always get an error saying the firmware could not be updated. I'm on mac os x 10.2.8.

with you there, it loads for a while when I hit the download, but then stops, any idea what's wrong here people??

Digi 002RACK, Pro Tools 6.1
Powerbook 1 GHz, 1G RAM
External Maxtor One-Touch 250G

"Download" in this instance means download from the CD-ROM that came with the 002R. The firmware on the CD is usually newer than the firmware that comes in the 002R.

Put the CD in the computer and then try starting ProTools, and then use the "Download" button. It worked for me.

Barnabas, thanks a million, I never thought of that, shall try it out later!

Yep. Worked fine with the cd in. Took a little while, 5 minutes or so, but it's been fine since then. Thanks!
