My clip is installed the EXACT same way as Khalkedon and christechtv did in their videos for a FAT ps3 installation.

I used hard foam glued to the top of the board and taped the ribbon cable as was done in the christechtv FAT installation video.

My e3 flasher is second hand, it arrived yesterday, so my ps3 would count as the second ps3 the flasher will be used on.

Also can someone tell me what the red button under the eSATA cable socket on the TF coverboard does? In my attempt to wipe any traces of bios data of my sellers ps3 from the flasher, I held it down for several seconds after my ps3 booted to the XMB. I saw very VERY faint blue lights flash every few seconds but not to the lighting strength of all the other lights on the board.

Aside from my curiosity of the red button, the main issue I want to address in this post is the update.bin not updating the flasher, so I can progress to the backup of the NOR step.

P.S. My PS3 Details
- CECHL02 FAT Model 80GB Purchased New mid 2009 4.00 OFW
