I did the upgrade this morning. It did not go without hiccups so I thought I would report my findings
1. My scope HW version is 01.00.000 and was updated and patched to the previous release
2. I'm using a 4GB USB drive formatted as Fat32. The drive is empty except for the FW files or patch files (not at the same time). I'm pretty sure that I have used this drive before for updates
3. I downloaded and extracted MSO5_FW_Update to the flash drive
4. Updated using the local upgrade options feature
5. On reboot the startup gas gage goes to full and then stalls. Dang
6. Second reboot - no change
7. Enter the secret menu by pressing Single button during reboot. Two options presented: Upgrade Firmware and Restore Defaults
8. Tried Upgrade Firmware - scope reports a FW error
9. Tried Restore Defaults - the scope boots and shows FW 00.01.03.02.02(!)
10. Ran the patch using the local upgrade option. Can confirm that the patch does not reboot the scope upon completion
11. Reboot scope, all options show forever
Thanks to lujji and everyone else who has worked enhancing this scope
Unlike NoisyBoy, my scope was not running using default settings
