HP 9300i update

[Thauzar]

Hi.

I want to update my HP 9300i firmware to check if it helps reduce de number of scrap cds it makes. After hours of roaming through the web, I managed to find in a dark corner of HP's ftp site the correct firmware.

BUT, when I try to install it it says it can't detect if the currect software installed on my computer was the software from disc 1 and to insert this disc 1 and install the software....

1st of all, my hp cd is gone to the paradise of lost&found cds long ago, but moreover, I downloaded and even installed the HP RecordNow software from hp's website so I guess I have the current version.

Anyone got that **** cd it could send my as .iso cause hp sucks so much they want to charge me 15$ US to ship a cd with software and drivers updates while I already got the firmware update I want. This way of doing is seriously bugging me.

Thanks for your help

If the firmware update you downloaded is made with installshield, use WinPack to extract the files and with any luck...a simple r.click -->install on the inf file should do the trick
