its ok i had to search everything. it has to do with computers running windows 7. it seems to be a persistent problem with other people.
Here are step by step instructions:
[1]Go to the folder where you installed RSD Lite
[2]Delete any files that start with "FlashErrorLog"
[3]Right click on "SDL.exe" and click "Run As Administrator"
[4]Move your recovery file to the root C:\ directory
[5]Rename the recovery file to something short, like "r.sbf", so that you will have space left for the filename to overwrite the junk characters
[6]Try flashing the file with RSD Lite - it will most likely fail, don't worry (if it works then good job, you are lucky )
[7]In the RSD Lite folder, open the newly created FlashErrorLog... file
[8]Count the number of junk characters after the real filename - for example if you have this error:
Code:
ERROR: \\?\c:\r.sbfqawñraï was not found.
then the junk characters are "qawñraï" and there are 7 of them, so we are going to add 7 extra letters to the real filename
[9]Rename the file to add the same number of letters/numbers as junk characters in the log file. In this case, we need to add 7, so change the filename to something like "r1234567.sbf" - make sure you add the characters BEFORE the file extension (".sbf"), not after!
[10]Point RSD Lite to the renamed file, click Start, and it should work!
