I extracted the R5 zip file onto my FAT16 formated CF card, so it had the three files on it. Then i followed the isntructions on how to pull up the Service menu. When i get to the menu where i select the media to flash from. I select CF, and then i get an error message. It's in japaneese so i have no clue what it says. I get the error no matter what media i choose so i assume its like a "can't find files" or something. I've tried multiple cards with no luck.
any ideas?
thanks.

EDIT: Turned out the AC wasn't plugged in on the other end, and that's what caused the error

Yup, always check the A/C power when doing anything other than normal use. You need it in for anything on any Z (again, excluding normal use).
It's always the simplest things that everyone forgets, eh?

yeaah.. like i couldn't figure out why OZ didn't flash. And it was because my card was Fat32, not Fat16. That was driving me nuts
