Make sure that the ntrw.exe is in the Root of your Drive C: and check also the correct drive letter of your Card reader.

I don't know what happend and I also tried to do it on my friend's laptop with a card reader on IBM T41, the same problems.

Help!
I've tried everything but I am not able to get NTRW working and copying my files to the SD card. All files are in C: drive and I enter: ntrw write ___.nb1 x:
What am I doing wrong??
Maybe your card-reader is still blocking your card?
Try disconnecting your card-reader and card and try again. It worked with me!
Try to redownload the ntrw.exe from the ftp server I will make sure I get the 2.0 version uploaded there!
Thanks, it worked!
What I need now is a German ROM to get rid of my original English ROM (bought the mda compact in Russia). Do you know any download site? Tried the Nowicom ROM (magiciandeutsch.nb1), after changing the headings (416 bytes) but the result is the same English ROM I already had.
Any idea??
Thanks,

After I successfully backup my O2 Mini existing ROM to the SD Card by the romupdate.exe. I used the ntrw.exe to convert the Image in the SD card to my computer. However, when i excute the command
> ntrw read backup.nb1 X:/
it return the followings..
>could not open backup.nb1 -- the volume does not contain a recognized file system. Pleas make sure that all requited file system drivers are loaded and that the colume is not corrupted.
I have tried other card reader (both 1.1 and 2.0) other computer and other SD card ( i am using LEXAR and Kingston 256 ) but the problem exists.
and the romupdate said the d2s command was success.
Why will it happen and
What can i do to fix this problem????
Thanks for your help....

You need to use a card reader and the drive X: should be the drive XP allocates to the SD card slot on your reader.
XP Assigns my SD reader to I: unless you have a lot of network drives on your PC it should be somewhere. The card needs to be in the card reader slot obviously and not the PDA.
I am also assuming that you are trying to write the Rom to your hard drive and not writing it back to the SD?
Hi there, looking at the dos screen you took, its telling you that you have already a file with that name in the folder. look, delete that file... and then try again... i had that problem yesterday. Now im struggling to upload the rom.
by wrong command also, it creates the nb1 file. so do DIR and see that .nb1 with 0 bytes will be there. delete it and try again!

SD Card problems after upgrading to 1.12
I posted this in the normal form but no one replied, I think this may be a problem causing my upgrading, so I post again here
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The SD Card used for dumping rom with ntrw could no longer be accessed by my notebook which was accessable before(I formatted the SDs already with my mini), it needed to be formatted, after I did that, and plug the SD into my mini, the mini couldnt read it and prompting the SD card needed to be formatted again!
So, I formatted it again with my mini, but after that my Notebook want to format the SD again, and the fight between them keeps going...
anyone encounter the same issue...there are some clues that I tested:
1. I got 3 SD cards, 2 for them used for upgrading and they occured the same problem, but the third one which is clean can be accessed by both machine
2. The SD cards(those with the problem) can be read by my PC's Card reader...
I know I could use the card reader instead, but I dont wana waste the build in one in my notebook and the data exchange between my Notebook and mini is quite important to me, pls if anyone could help me solving the problem, Many thx!
Hi, you must use ntrw in comand window ( in winxp run cmd )
Take ntrw.exe and your file.nb1 in roof directory.
Type the command C:\ntrw read rom.nb1 x: ("x" is your cardreader name)
Ignore any error message when you plug SD card into your cardreader.
After that you type d2s in next window, so on...
When finish you will have file .nb1 in your roof directory.
Hope you successful !
Hi, when I upgraded my rom I encountered a small problem. I have loaded the rom from my MDA to the SD card. But when I tried to use ntrw command, it just did not work. The command I used is "ntrw read Tmobile.nb1 i:". However, I just got the message "Usage: ntrw file drive:" on the screen. I supposed the problem is in the filename I used, "Tmobile.nb1". Now I am in the UK, and this is an English 1.12 WWE rom. So what should the file name be? and how can I get NTRW work?
I am sorry for the dummy question. I did search the forum, trying to find the answer to my question, but could not find any. Please help and tell me how to solve the problem.... Again, my apology for my ignorance....
I did a little research on google and found that the file name of the rom on the SD card can be randomly given. Therefore, the command I used "ntrw read Tmobile.nb1 i:" should have worked. And I am sure that the sd card is on drive i:.
Now I really don't know why I cannot load the rom from the SD card to my PC? Can anyone help....
My card is Sandisk 1.0 gb. Can that be a problem? When I tried to upload a rom file from my pc to the sd card, it showed: "unsupported media type"......
This is weird cause i've got the same problem "it just says ntrw write file usage" and i use a sandisk 1.0 GB card too.
I guess the software u using is corupted, try to download again in FTP but make sure use diffent one. Because there are many software with the same name, but some of it is not working perfectly.
Thx for your reply, mate!! Now I found the problem. As you said I used the wrong software. I simply use the ntrw.exe file from the upgrade guild folder. However, that one is not compatible with either windows sp2 or usb 2.0. I d/l the ntrw 2.0, and everything is fine now.
Thx for helping
I am in a bad situation with my rooted, now semi-bricked G1 =[
I had cyanogenmod and RA recov. I installed a new theme directly from the CM updater app; then on reboot, my phone would not boot into the OS (stuck on logo, before loading screen). So I tried to overwrite the phone with cyan again. It wouldn't work so then I was left to flash the phone and start over. Upon flashing, I got that b#$6h of an error. Then the "RUUNBH".
Now upon turning on my phone (In any way) it comes to the colured screen. When I try to flash a nbh, I get the "not allow" because my SD card needs to be a gold card.
The only method now is to gold card my SD. Which I cannot figure out anymore because all the methods I would need a WinMo phone or an working Android phone, neither I have access to.
In short, does anyone know how I can get a SD card's CID without a phone. I DO have a laptop with a sd card reader and CAN get access to a external USB sd card reader.
Any help?

Buy a cheap winmo phone? Something that has whats required. There has to be an old one that can do it for like 20 - 30 dollars. I don't think it's possible otherwise.
I think it may be possible to get the CID with a sdcard slot (not USB), usually within a laptop. Recently, I found this: jo0ls-dotnet-stuff.blogspot.com/search/label/SD%20Card%20CID
I used his source and threw in a couple lines to debug why it wasn't working, but it seems the laptop I own doesn't have a support SD card slot, so I will have to go see someone who has a internal SD slot on their laptop.
A winmo phone for $30?... By any chance of pointing me in the direction of such item(s)? (I am Australian)

Thanks for your suggestion. But it is possible that you would still need to get her a CID. I am wondering if it is possible to overwrite the whole SD card through the tool that is used to edit your SD card and into a 'goldcard'.
I PMed the person who was recommended in that thread, fingers crossed.
SD card reader that can read SD/MMC 32 bit CID
Hi There
I think this might be useful to anyone that sits with the problem of reading the 32 bit serial number/CID of a SD/MMC card.
I have managed to get firmware written for the Addonics eSata/USB multi-card reader model AEPDDESU with a small application that will read and display the CID number.
There is no other way to read the CID number through USB on PC other than having the the chip set inside the reader relay the information back to the host when it receives an application defined command,like for instance DeviceIoControl.
If anyone is interested drop me a mail and i will gladly mail u the firmware + utillity .One will need to buy this drive though.

Dear friend.
I am looking for solution to read Serial No from SD card. I made special software which is runing on every pc on out company an check all inserted USB memory keys. Then compare serial no with database and if not registered is used we get warnings on IT section that not registered usb key was used.
Unfortunatelly i have problem with sd cards because i always get serial number of card reader and not serial no od SD card.
Is there some way to get serial no from SD card via Card reader? Can you send me the model of card reader which is possible to read this SN + Software?
Is there some dll or component for reading usable for .net visual basic?
Thank you for informations.
