v00.04.05.02.04  2023/02/28
     -Added new nandflash driver and original nandflash compatibility

Looks like a minor update as only the last digit is changed in the version number. But the rev. history discloses more important information.
The reason for the previous version is now clear:


--- Code: ---v00.04.05.02.03  2022/03/25
     -add system file backup, solve the problems of red screen when booting, buzzer beeping, keyboard flashing

--- End code ---

It must be a frequent issue, because there is related app note on the N.A. web site. And this is exactly what I'd experienced. It does not boot, red screen, and an attempt to apply the proposed fix results in buzzer beeping, keyboard flashing.

To my knowledge, v00.04.05.02.03 was never published. Assuming every update is cumulative, the latest version incorporates a fix for the red screen issue as well. For those running a version older than v00.04.05.02.03, it'll make sense to upgrade to the new version ASAP, just to be on the safe side. IMHO.

Must be a problem for newer hardware versions.  My DS1054Z is from 2015 or so, and never had boot problems.  Since it's working fine and there are no new features in the recent firmware, I see no reason to upgrade.

Never saw it either.

Maybe the problem was with a different supplier of NAND flash they started using.  :popcorn:

The red screen problem has been around for a while (no idea how frequent it is).  See https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/rigol-red-screen-of-death/

I've seen a red-screened DS1054z go for peanuts on eBay as "for parts/not working" within the past half year or so.  If this update makes it an easy fix, someone got a good deal.
