@poex - You can use any windows, but you have to install ME drivers before you can use FPT.
And, FPT MUST be ran from Admin CMD Prompt, if you are using Win10 here is registry fix to add Open CMD here as Admin, reboot after install - http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fil…134606820377175
OR, if you do not use windows, you can use DOS if you want, boot to DOS on USB, then follow same instructions but use FPT.exe in command instead of FPTw.exe.
Make bootable DOS, then copy ALL contents of DOS folder to root of USB, then proceed.
