The P3 firmware update won't copy to my player.

Aug 2, 2009 6:40AM PDT

I copied a firmware update for the P3 to my hard drive on a Windows Vista system. No matter what I do, it won't copy the ypp3.bin file to the Internal Storage Folder. When I right click, there is no paste option. If I drag it to the folder, it does nothing. I tried extracting directly to the folder and that doesn't work either. I can drag files to the other folders or paste into them. Everything else seems to work flawlessly. This problem is only with the Internal Storage folder. This is frustrating. Any pointers?

I thought I was in the Samsung forum when I posted. My apologies. I will post there. Newbie error.

no luck updating to latest firmware, as well. head over to the samsung forum. usually if the tech guy doesn't answer, there are other P3 owners that have been able to help. a couple guys have been able to assist me so far. see ya there.
