Updating the Gmini™ XS100 Firmware
Updating the Gmini™ XS100 Firmware
Archos periodically updates the fi rmware or Operating System (OS) and makes it available for free download
on the ARCHOS website (www.archos.com). Updates to the Operating System include new features, feature
improvements, and bug fi xes. You should check to make sure that you are running the most recent version of the
OS. To see the current version of the software you device is running, go to Setup > System and look at the line
OS Version . You will nd the most recent version of the OS and its version number at the Archos website (www.
archos.com) under the category Software .
11.1 Download the Update_GminiXS100.AOS fi le
11.1 Download the Update_GminiXS100.AOS le
When you click on the link to download the new OS fi le (the fi le name is Update_
GminiXS100.AOS), your browser may warn you that the contents of the download
may harm your computer. This is because the Windows
®
system does not know what
a.AOS fi le is. Be assured that Archos has made every effort to ensure that the fi le
does not contain viruses. Click on the option Save to download this fi le to a convenient
place, such as My Documents , in order to later copy this fi le to your Gmini XS100. If
your Gmini is connected to your PC, you can even save it directly to the Gmini.
You will also fi nd next to the fi rmware download, a text fi le which details the list of
changes from the previous version of the OS.
11.2 Copy to Gmini™ root and Update
11.2 Copy to Gmini™ root and Update
Connect your Gmini to your computer (See the chapter on connecting to
the computer for help), and then copy the Update_GminiXS100.AOS le
to the root directory of the Gmini. The root directory is the top most level
of the directory hierarchy. Just drag this.AOS fi le onto the Gmini XS100
Hard disk (named Jukebox ) in your fi le manager and it will place it in the
top most directory (outside any folder). If there is already an older version
of the Update_GminiXS100.AOS fi le on your Gmini, Windows
®
will ask if
you want to overwrite the current fi le. Click on Yes.

Once this fi le is copied, safely disconnect Gmini XS100 from the computer. Refer to the disconnection procedure
in the connection chapter if you are unsure of how to do this.
On your Gmini, go to Setup > System and select the [ Update Firmware ] line. Click ENTER. You will prompted
to power the Gmini by either the USB cable connected to a turned-on computer, or the optional adapter/charger.
The Gmini will now locate the update fi le and install it. A message will appear asking you to unplug the USB cable
(if that is how you powered it) and then click on any button to restart the device. You can go to Setup > System
to verify the new OS has been installed by looking at the version number there.
Warning!
Never unplug the USB cable or DC-in adapter while the update is in progress. This can cause
permanent damage to the unit.
