Does not matter if Manuel or with the utility. I try it with Windows 7 (64 bit) and Ubuntu 10.10 (64bit). IPod Format is fat32.
someone a idea for me?
edit:
Ok the Problem ist 64bit Version it works on my netbook with windwos XP 32bit
AlexP:
Did you run with root rights?
neofox:
yes i do it in Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.10 as Admin/Root
cork2win:
I am having this exact problem. I have a 32 bit Vista machine logged in as Admin. Ipod is Win Fat32. Did anyone ever find a solution for this?
Attaching a screenprint of the ipodpatcher.exe window output.
inlimbo:
I seem to be having this problem as well with my 80gb iPod Video. I'm using 32-bit Windows 7, and everything installs fine except the bootloader. Tried both the utility and ipodpatcher.exe. Made sure I was logged in as admin.
