Updating the Hog

Hey guys. I need to update our Hog but need some help. Here is the situation: The church that I work for bought a RoadHog brand new in August of 09. At the time of purchase, we thought the system was fully updated. However, it was not until last month that we realized that our system was way out of date (Version 1.3.4 or something). So I called High End and talked to a technician. He said that I would have to upgrade the packet (to Version 3._._) and the software. He also said I would loose all of my pallettes since I am upgrading the packet from Version 1 to Version 3.

If possible, could someone please give me detailed instructions on how to do this. I know all the upgrades are available from online, but I am worried about upgrading the packet to Version 3. Also, will I loose all my palettes? Thanks guys. I hope this makes sense.

    Check out page 361 of the current manual.

    The Road Hog console system restore routine can restore the original software or upgrade the XPe image from external USB drives (Flash, CD, ZIP). Newer versions of software may be available at www.flyingpig.com.

    To restore your system files from a USB drive, you’ll need:
    • Road Hog System Restore image on a USB drive (flash, CD, or Zip drive).
    The image must be an ISO image properly extracted to a CD or bootable flash drive; see Creating a Bootable USB Flash Drive (p.363).
    • USB Keyboard.

    To restore the system files:
    1. Connect the USB keyboard to the console.
    2. Connect the USB drive containing the System restore image.
    3. As the system boots up, press F8 on the keyboard to display the boot
    device selection screen.
    4. Select the USB device that contains the system restore image from the
    list.
    5. A recovery screen will prompt you to select a Full or Partial recovery.
    A full recovery will erase the show files on the hard drive and a partial
    will not.
    6. The console will immediately begin drive restoration. The process may
    take anywhere from 10-15 minutes, and will automatically reboot your
    console when finished. Do not touch any keys or attempt to interrupt
    the restore process. If the process is interrupted for any reason, simply
    reboot and return to Step 1 to ensure the Road Hog console is com-
    pletely restored.
    7. Once the system is restored and rebooted, remove the System Restore
    USB drive and store in a safe place.
