Via winupdate.exe I was trying to upgrade my firmware from 1.5.6 to 
1.7.1 (s1010701.hex).  I encountered: "Error Programming Block. Continue 
anyway?" and chose not to continue.  Subsequently the card didnt 
function in windoze.

I've tried the same card under linux with no joy. I've posted my dmesg 
output below.  Any ideas if I can recover or if the card is fried?

Thanks.
