Title: Pleo died after updating
Post by: mrbillc on December 19, 2009, 08:30:36 AM
Pleo worked Great. Then Installed fully Charged battey put sd card in with unzipped 1.1 files and turned it on it is made a sound right away then nothing for 10 minutes no sound no movement no anything. Now pleo will do nothing with a fully charged battery. wont do anything with or without sd card, wont retry update nor will it do anything when we try to downgrade. the only thing it does is when you turn it on you can barely hear some thing like a speaker click. any help would be appreciated Thank you.

Oh dear, that is a worry :( Can you hook your Pleo up to a computer and try upgrading by USB cable?

I tried to update pleo to 1.1 via usb and due to the battery problems (the usual ones) I think it ran out of juice and it crashed in stage 3.
When I tried to run it again it said that 1.1 was already installed.
How do I know that the update went correctly? Is there any way to deinstall 1.1 and reinstall it?
I assume from above that I shouldn't try the SD route?
Is the updater compatible with Windows 7? I updated from my wife's Vista laptop.

Thanks

I assume win 7 would run fine, I haven't had any problem using the windows installer for them. If your Pleo is walking around then it is likely the update went through however you can downgrade using the downgrade file from the software thread.
