    Does it succeed...?

    What happened between when it went fast and when it started going slow...?

    Check that you have the "Use high speed" box checked.

    Might pay to send through the debug as described here (http://www.efilive.com/index.php?opt...111&Itemid=121). Perhaps your PCM has bad flash?

    Have you tried with a different computer?
    Maybe a COM setting?

    I meant try using another laptop/PC to see if it will flash correctly.
    I remember flashing my stock PCM, the 3 minutes or so it took was an eternity.
    I can't imagine waiting 40mins.

    Do what Tordne said in post #3.

    Do you remember the events just prior to this happening...?
