I put the plpbtrom files to d: drive in folder plop. I open command prompt and enter the command d:\plop\plpbtrom.exe -vendorid 0x10de -deviceid 0x07dc plpbtrom.bin plpbt.rom. But it gives error: unable to open plpbtrom.bin. Somebody please  tell where I'm doing wrong.

C:\documents and settings\username>d:\plop\plpbtrom.exe -vendorid 0x10de -deviceid 0x07dc plpbtrom.bin plpbt.rom

you are still in C:\documents and settings\username so plpbtrom cannot find the files

dos is really not so difficult.

simply use "d:" to change the drive and "cd \plop" to change the directory. then run "plpbtrom -vendorid 0x10de -deviceid 0x07dc plpbtrom.bin plpbt.rom" and suddenly it will work
