FRAGFX 3.0A FIRMWARE UPGRADE
General:
The FragFX firmware upgrade software is designed for an IBM compatible Personal
Computer (PC). This software will not run directly on the Sony Playstation 3.
The FragFX is a USB device that can be plugged into a computer system. Our FragFX
firmware software is designed to update via a PC to compensate for tweaks, and
upgrades that have been suggested to us from the FragFX gamers.
Before you start:
The FragFX needs a USB driver for your PC to recognize the FragFX and allow the upgrade
software to communicate with the FragFX, before you are able to upgrade. You need to
download and install the driver. For more information about the driver, please refer to the
driver instruction.
If you have any question, please contact technical support at:

possible.
Our support email is:
back to you as soon as possible.
If you have successfully installed the new driver, continue to the upgrade process.
Firmware Upgrade :
1) Start the FragFX firmware upgrade program by choosing "FragFX Upgrade Vxx.exe" (the
“xx” is the version number, it may be different from version to version) from the folder where
you saved it from the download.
Click on the “FragFX Upgrade Vxx.exe” to start the upgrade software. You should have your
FragFX plugged in the USB port before starting the upgrade. Make sure the FragFX is
plugged into the USB port that was used when you installed the driver.
Note: Each USB port may need to install the driver individually for the PC to recognize the
FragFX.
