Update A700 to V4 firmware

[snn]

I am trying to update from V3 to V4 in Windows. I downloaded V4 from Sony Europe, formatted CF, copied across, checked with Windows Explorer and it shows 100MSDCF File Folder, DSCA700.APP 4609KB 29/082008 and yet when I put the CF in camera and press the Menu/Display buttons it still shows V3. Any help appreciated.

Repeat the procedures Stephen in the following steps:
1- Format a CF card with your camera.
2- Attach your camera to your PC.
3- Copy the exe file on it
4- Switch off the camera and remove the cable.
5- Push the menu button on the camera and without releasing your finger from it, switch the camera on. In a second or two you'll see an appropriate question on your LCD.

Good luck and welcome to the forum.
Do let us know if everything went OK.

Dr Harout thank you for taking time to reply.
Referring to your notes I checked the Sony site on the notes referring to the firmware update where it states you have to reformat the CF card, which I had thought I had done, but I found the photos still on the card, so I pressed the 'Cancel' to achieve this and recopy V4 to card, and it was the same with the actual update, I pressed the Menu button turned on and the only way I found to activate the update to V4 was to press the black 'Cancel' in the confirmation window where it asks if you wish to Update?. I had assumed you pressed the orange 'OK' button.
