I haven't installed any new patches on my 6900 super hd for some time. Looking at the latest patches I am nervous about how to do these as they talk about factory resets etc. Before I have just put the new patch on with a usb stick.
Before installing the the latest patch which I think is called a magic patch could someone give me step by step instructions on how it should be done please.
use the latest patch!

Hi Giga,
I'm a little confused by this part:-
I saved the first two files, but when pressing 8281 and accessing the server list, there is no CSInfo upload option. What do I need to do to get that option? I've tried pressing the Sat button?Main Menu

I have a 6900 Super that was patched by the previous owner, so have no idea of what revision it is? Is there a list of what the later patches offer over the original?
Also, are you able to describe how the filter works on the 8281 menu?
Cheers, Lee
