Frustrated user looking for help

Post by s_mack »

HI. A gentleman who has attempted to update his radio to er9x and fears he has "bricked" his radio is seeking assistance.

He's indicated he's perhaps not the most computer savy, so I'm posting this thread and then I'm going to link him here so he knows exactly where to go to get help. I don't have the details of his problem. So consider this post a placeholder until he gets here.

yep, right. These nerds around here only drink 120 proof beer and give greatly twisted advice, albeit they do work. :D
Just make sure your friend take some Antivert 1st. :mrgreen:

I have yet to see a bricked 9x ....sure damaged board or something stupid, but bricked ...not yet ....so I'm sure we will be able to get him sorted, even if he needs to send it to one of us to fix it for him.

That's what I told him.... all he really needs to do is seek guidance.

I was trying to help him over the phone but he had to go suddenly. I'm out of town for a few days so I thought it best to direct him here. Hopefully he shows up and you guys put him on the path!

If he doesn't post, then my appologies for the nothing-thread :)

Cheers.

It's not a nothing thread, we can make it into the geek-speak and mead thread.

Did someone say beer?
(I've had Rob install a beer notice extension - I feel that I must respond to any and every mention of beer)

I think we should work on the voice thingy, so every time the radio boots it says... 'er9x...mmmm... BEER!'
All error messages will be something like 'switch error, mmm... beer', 'low voltage warning...mmm... BEER'

and so on.

:D

LOL. Priceless. Beer does do that to you... no reason it shouldn't do the same to the radio.. :)

Not sure that beer will make a very good boss. Might be better to work with beer.
Ever consider getting a job at a brewery?

Maybe Rob should add a 'Beer' section to the forum. Maybe that will help keep this from taking over innocent threads like this one.

And revised:
Will work for 'and with' beer!

With ppl like this you can't get away from it. See how a small innocent mention of beer in a side thread got us all worked up?

The problem is that the "responsible adults" here are the main conspirators.
