It sounds to me like you need to first understand what flash memory is. I 
don't know if there is a faq that describes this.

To answer that one question. Flash memory cannot just be reprogrammed, in 
many/most instances you first need to erase the section of flash before you 
can reprogram it. All the limitations are far too complex to answer in an 
email like this though.
