UPDATE: V8 Pass-Through Reading/Flashing Support (pre-release)
This pre-release is beta level software. It is not 100% ready for production use, so we advise against installing it into production environments. You should only update/use this pre-release in environments where failure can be tolerated and recovered using other processes.
Very Important: Paul is currently in hospital for some back surgery so any existing problems with this release will not be fixed for at least 10 - 14 days as of the 28th of October, please keep this in mind before you install.
Updated Oct 26, 2010
Version 8.1.2 build 120 has been updated to fix minor bugs in build 119:
We've activated the pass-through reading mode and now the pass-through cal-flashing mode in the V8 software. You can download the V8 software update here:
http://download.efilive.com/Software....120_Setup.exe (18MB).
The V7 software has also been updated. A few bug fixes and minor enhancements are available in the V7 software. You can download the latest V7 software here:
http://download.efilive.com/Software....136_Setup.exe (90MB).
There have been a number of changes to the currently available V8 software, most notably:
- Look and feel of the V8 software has been updated (again).
- The V8 software is now window-based. The tabbed based design proved to be too complicated and difficult to use.
- FlashScan/AutoCal boot block and firmware have been updated.
- Latest boot block is V2.07.01
- Latest firmware is V2.07.02
- Pass-through reading/flashing has been added.
- Select the "F3: Tune" option to open the pass-thru reading/flashing tab page.
