    Could also be that the flash ROM has been fried. If thats the case then it's only good for spares.

    Can't flash ROMs just be reflashed?

    Unless the ROM chip itself is actually knackered.

    Are they replaceable?

    If the flash failed or was aborted whilst trying to be installed it can kill the onboard flash rom and as far as i know it cannot be replaced. It can be reflashed sometimes but this does not always work. Even if it does work the Flashrom may still be corrupt. It was a wonderfull design flaw guarenteed to sell more units and make sure that everyone used PowerUP. I may be wrong.
