Yeah thats what they usually say when you do your motherboard and many
people warn you abou tthat but usually if you do things OK then the
result is OK. Its impossible to prove there wasnt a problem --- that
the battery didnt run out of power or your PC didnt suddenly switch
off due to power failure during the upgrade but strangely enough none
of those things did happen and its dead.

I really cant explain it , a micro interruption I couldnt detect?
Seems kind of unlikely bit who knows. See theres the problem I dont
know if itheres a defect somewhere in the build of the camera or the
firmware etc. Obviously its not widespread or I would have heard about
it. But when you follow the instructions and your couple hundred buck
device becomes a paperweight --- it just doesnt seem to be right.

I have had a problem one time out of zillions of flashes but the MB
maker quickly remedied that by letting me send in the bios chip and
they sent me another one just for shipping costs. Yes I understand the
dangers just like with boards its spelled out - if the power is
interrupted then tough luck or you flash the wrong firmware though
this one has a safeguard. You cant I think flash the wrong firmware it
checks. So that means a defect. Ill send it in and see what they say.
It was also amazingly right within days of the end of the 1 year
warranty.
