New DSP Firmware won't Load

[dwines]

I downloaded the new K3 utility this morning so I could upgrade the K3
firmware.

The MCU V1.58 loads OK but the DSP V1.48 won't load. The K3 VFO B area tells
me "NEW K3UTIL SOFTWARE REQUIRED * * * *".

I have reloaded the K3 utility (V1.1.1.7) but the DSP still won't load. It
takes about 10 minutes for the attempt after which the K3 displays "E
000202" in VFO A and "ERR DSE" in VFO B. The manual tells me to reload the
DSP firmware which is what I have been trying to do.

I am using the Elecraft Serial/USB adapter cable.

I have also tried the "Cold Boot" method to no avail.

Is there any way to load older (working) versions of the firmware?

Please update your USB to Serial Adapter driver.  There is a link to the
Prolific web site in the Troubleshooting section of K3 Utility Help.
