The syntax above depends upon which flash memory you are downloading to
the ARPB2. The XXX represents the version number of the flash memory
upgrade. The XXX should be replaced with the version number that you are

sending the flash memory could then be used for other tasks. Windows 95 will
however have to be left running until the download has completed.
