Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi hitsware, thanks for the response. I have those docs however the steps refer to "PGM" pins, those pins are not on the retromax. The board does have J65-J67 near J18 which is labelled Firmware reflash. I need to know which pins to jumper.

ALL of my websites and email are down. I'm fighting to get back on line.

The RetroMax has a firmware update button that can be pressed on powerup to put the device into firmware update mode.

Thank you CG for taking the time to respond while you are dealing with your sites, it's very much appreciated! The firmware process worked like a charm, I'm now on v5.07.01.
