      This error occurs if the SWUPDATE.BIN file is damaged or the microSD card is full. To fix it, try deleting files from your card and recopy the SWUPDATE.BIN file. You may also want to redownload the file from www.pocketbook-int.com. If the issue persists, use a different microSD card.

      This means the SWUPDATE.BIN file is missing from the microSD card. To resolve this, format your microSD card (back up your data first!) and copy the SWUPDATE.BIN file to the root directory of the empty card. If the problem continues, try using a different card.
