The very top level. i.e. Not within the DCIM, PENTAX or any other directory, but at the very top available level after you open the drive on your computer.
"root" is a common unix term used for the top level, like the root of a tree. Where it all begins.
If you simply drag the file onto the card/drive, it should work just as well.
Be sure to delete the file from the card when you are done.

Many thanks - the update has now worked. I didn't have a clue what a 'root directory' was and had put the update software into the DCIM Directory!!
I never stop learning, and never will, about computers!
Thanks again.

Where is the root directory for the card?? (I am using a 2GB card - more than enough and I've formatted it as per the Readme text).
Help!!
