That didn't help.

I'm doing much travelling right now, As soon as I'm back (in a week) I
will disassemle the box and remove the Disk and attach it directly to my
PC. then I will be able to verify the Firmware I flashed, maybe the file
was garbled.

Afterwards I try to do the serial mod, sadly I couldn't find any
schematics for the FM Recorder. Anyone who has done a mod on am FM?
