Can someone provide the proper link, or even the bootloader by Email? 

Another point - there in no 'install' routine for Arduino as they keep referring to.  I unzip the file, and click on the exe file, and it runs. 

I'll keep at this til I get it.....  I hope!!

Thanx
Ski

Let me have a go with the other instructions.  Back later........

Or does it say Solidoodle MotherBoard rev-E?  That's a printerboard so you'll need to use the printerboard instructions. http://www.soliwiki.com/Updating_Solido … structions

I'll be back at this tomorrow.

It's simple on your board unless you ended up with one of the few Sangs without a bootloader.  When did you get your printer?  What revision is the board?

The process is
Download the firmware and open Marlin.ino (.pde) it with Arduino 022
Go to configuration.h and make your thermistor change and max temp change. Choose the correct board number and set SD2 or 3
In tools select the correct board and com port.
Click save
Click verify
Hit the reset button on the board
Click upload.
That's it.

Ward - I have saved it, but then  can't find it, marlin.pde, is no longer in the place I took it from - in the Marlin directory it's gone.  I've had to reload and re-unzip the mlaws...  file to get another copy of marlin.phe 
Assuming I find where I've saved it, do I use the saved copy, or the copy in memory?

Try using Arduino 1.0.5 and see if that works. The newest version is not that friendly with some of the older hardware that printers use.

AZ - I changed it from 6 to 5.  What else should I worry about when I get this this to go like it should?

OK...  97 is no prob with the deck, I have a third party/home made deck that heats to 95 in about 3 min, but until now, I haven't had cause to mess with the firmware.  The E3DV6 was OK with what I printed, it's now in the box awaiting a rebuild.  The Lite has been working fine, until this last batch of filament, it seems.
AZ - I do run 1976 for Z height.  I could,'t get much over 220 or so with the stock firmware.  So I have spent most of the day trying in vain to upgrade the current firmware.  I am doing it on the Bosses' Win10 as Arduino can't find com 3 trying from Win8.1 on an IMac - go figure. 
I used to program years ago so I am not totally oblivious or paranoid about doing it.  Try as I may all I can come up with is the errors listed below.  I have only changed the thermistor type to 5 from 6, and the max heat to 295, from 225.
