Go to Post I looked at it and originally thought it was a crazy idea... then I looked at it again and it still sounds like a crazy idea. But crazy ideas tend to produce some excellent results. - Yipyapper [more]

Wow. You're good.

Ask Lugnet. They're the Lego gurus.

Re: The brick clicks, nothing else
Have you tried resetting the brick? I don't have one with me atm, but on the underside, towards the top, you should see a button in one of the holes. Stick a paper clip or something else thin in there to hold down the button for about five seconds, and the clicking should stop. Then connect the usb cable to a computer, and download the firmware again.

I've noticed this occasionally happens when switching between different firmware versions, but have yet to find any real pattern to it. There's a patch available on the mindstorms site if it keeps happening.

Re: The brick clicks, nothing else
OK, problem fixed after a patch installation and another odd change, which leads me to another question:

did anyone get bad USB cables in their kits??? I switched to another cable, an older one at that, and the brick got the firmware on the first try.
