20D lockup issue update

[IanC_UK]

Hi all,

Not sure how many of you remember, i was getting 00 lockups when i updated to version 2.0.x of the firmware, and was getting a bit fed up with it lol

Latest news is, i got the link for the 1.0.x firmware from Steve, and installed this to the camera, this was over a month ago, and i have not had a lock up once since that time. So something in the 2.0.x firmware seems to have been causing issues with my camera. Not sure if its the cause of other lockups, but seems to be with mine.

I have had no further lockups and am on the latest firmware (was on 1.0.5 then).

Mine were err99 though.

I wrote down all my settings before the update. Was most surprised to find them all as I left them after the firmware change.

i may give the latest a go again, now i have the 1.0.x firmwares all stored on my pc

I thought error 99 was a lens problem?. onders:

I think Err99 Is a catchall.

It basically means "I'm broke, but I'm buggered if I know why".

Err99 is usually lens but Marcel is right it seems to be default im buggered if i know error lol
