Thanks elephant007!!! I finally got it working. what an ordeal. I think it was the loading of the usb drivers prior to running the update utility. I'm running XP pro, and decided to just try the 2.1 leaked update in the binary folder rather than just trying to load the 2.0 recovery module. Now I just need to try and root 2.1

Thanks again for all of your help.
