use an older vcm manager and make recovery. preferably with a new SD card (max 2GB). Then remember that after each point of recovery to wait 2min (population of sd)

1. Press the plastic button (to the quiet click) but not much.
2. connect the +12 v supply through connector. (Continue to hold the button)
3. Wait a few seconds, the red light, but you must continue to hold the button.
When a beep sounds immediately release the button.
4. Wait about two minutes (visually nothing will happen), connect the USB cord from VCM2 to computer.
5. Start Bosh VCI MANAGER. Once connected, you will see your VCM2 in recovery mode.
6. click on "Restore" button and go to drink coffee, it takes about 40 minutes.
7. after flashing VCM2 automatically reboot.
(If, after repeated firmware situation BEEP 1 second, you can try to do firmware lower software version)
8. Wait 2 minutes.
9. unplug all cables from VCM2
10. Restart the computer, then will work ok smile
