This procedure worked for me but I had to download, Copy and Paste the firmware 14rdd file to C:\program Files\Novak Electronics\Novalink
than no more error or incorrect string messages
[QUOTE=skypilot;8461399]having not ran my buggy with the K 2s i haven't bothered to do the 1.4 update, until now.
what I did was completely remove the novak folder from the program files, removed everything novak from my docs, went into the control panel and removed the file that was in there. emptied the recycle bin, restarted the computer. went to the novak site and downloaded the full version of 1.4, opened the driver file and installed, opened the install file and installed, opened the setup file and installed.
closed everything, clicked on the novalink icon on the desktop, connected the esc. bada bing, pretty new screen, with a notes page (very cool). hit the update button. esc updated.
worked perfect thanks for the update.
