hi Denaba , which model 2201 Y'd download
what media storage did you put in, external USB or local drive
checkthe usb format is FAT32?

Thanks for the reply FuryA. I made a mistake and I apologize. It is version 2202 not 1. 2202 is what I have installed

All drives are local:
C: Sammy 950 Pro in M.2 slot
😧 Western Digital 1TB spinny

The USB is FAT32 and works fine. I have two identical systems which I check back and forth.
Computer A (mine) is now on 3401
Computer B is still on 2202

So weird thing, on computer A. When it was updated to 3201 the system read it. Then I updated to 3401 and then I went back to read 3201 it now could not read 3201. So I took the the thumb over to computer B and it read 3201 just fine.

Without any deep troubleshooting it looks like in my case that once you go up in versions I cannot read older ones. Again this is on two systems which have identical parts and setups. Maybe there is some sort of safety setting that says you can only update going upwards and you can never install an older UEFI? Not sure though, I'll look in the UEFI BIOS and poke around.

If you download an old UEFI version can you read the information on it "prior" to installing it?

Thanks for the reply Menthol. Question, where is this? I was looking in the UEFI BIOS and I was reading the manual and still do not see it. Maybe my tired eyes are just dead.
