From iRiver themselves, one would imagine...

iRiver H100 v1.66

There is a link in that dialog that points to a wiki page, which in turn holds various links to the firmware files. Most seem to be dead these days but there's also a link to a site mirroring the firmware files.

What's the problem with the link presented in the dialog?

Ah, quick answers, Thank you!

Well, all the links I could find was dead or the file had errors and couldn't be used.
And for the H100 Series Firmware V1.66, i was searching for iHP 100 and could find nothing, my bad.  :'(

Edit:
I see now that its only H110 and up, can i use that on my iHP100?

There isn't actually a H100, there are H110, H115, H120 and H140.  Which do you have?

Plus the iHP variants, which was the number "prefix" until iriver changed it to H.

What i have is the iHP100.
Found this on wikipedia "H110 (originally iHP-100, later iHP-110): 10 GB hard drive" so I it seems like i have the H110.
Thanks again =)

But it seems like my battery is as good as dead, getting the "low on battery" even though I've charge it the whole night. =/

Heh, I stand corrected - I remember them back in the iHP days, but didn't realise the iHP-110 was originally just 100

Batteries are pretty readily available for them (in much bigger capacities too) - I seem to remember that ipod 1st/2nd gen ones fit if you switch the polarity as well.

Interesting -- wasn't aware of that neither. Years after and one still can learn things

Yes, I did that with my old h120 some years ago. There was a guide on how to do that on misticriver, as far as I know that doesn't exist anymore though.
