Yes!  It changes to FASTBOOK USB.  And I could hear a sound in my computer actually. The problem is I can't see any new drive appearing...    I tried another computer (also win7). Installed the drivers all over again there.  Still, I can't see new drive. I changed another USB cable and even another microSD card.. same thing...

Ok. Now I RE-INSTALLED the Windows 7!  

This is what I'm going to do:

1) create folder C:\android
[done]
2) download and unzip hkgphone_heromclogopack.rar in the above folder
[done]
3) download and unzip android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3.zip
[done]
4) boot Magic to FASTBOOT mode by pressing "back" and "on/off"
[done]
5) connect Magic to computer with a USB cable, the Magic will turn to FASTBOOT USB mode
[done]
6) the Windows will ask for installing driver to the detected device, install the driver in sdk../...x86 folder
---- ok the windows found the device "Android 1.0" and tried to automatically find a driver for it but failed.
---- so I installed the driver found in "C:\android\hkgphone_heromclogopack\usb_driver\x86" for "Android 1.0"
---- "HTC Bootloader" driver was successfully installed. I can see this below "ADB Interface" in device manager.

at this point, i should be able to see the Drive X: of microSD card...

---- THE PROBLEM IS THAT I canNOT see the drive for microSD card...!!

7) run "flash.bat" in hkgphone_heromclogopack to flash Magic to HERO again
8) done.

That's my plan.  Everything alright?

Does that mean my Magic becomes a Brick now...?   -_-"

你要取出電池....唔好插usb 住....
入返舊電...back + on/off
入左fastboot 先好插usb

I could hear a sound in my computer showing it actually detects the phone connected. The device manager shows "ADB Interface->HTC Bootloader" when the phone is connected...  but just I can't see the drive...

In FASTBOOT mode..  There's an option:
<VOL DOWN> HBoot Mode

---
I tried to press the Volume Down key, it shows:

SD Checking..  
Loading... [SAPPDIAG.zip]
No Image!
Loading... [SAPPDIA2.zip]
No Image or wrong image!
Loading...[SAPPDIAG.nbh]
.....

Error window pops up:

The program can't start because AdbWinApi.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this program.

你只要將這個 attachment ...
unzip 後....將AdbWinApi.dll 放到C:/windows/system32 裡就可以了

I followed your solution and copy/paste the file into system32.  Then run flash.bat....

Know what, the Magic vibrated!!! Then.. OH!! I saw the black background, yellow text system recovery utility!!!!!  I wanna cry now!!!!!!!!!!!

So I need to choose Apply sdcard:update.zip, right??
