DJM-350 firmware update will not run

Trying to update the firmware on my djm-350 black using the effect switch bin file. Blank fat32 usb drive, djm0506.bin in the root of the drive, put into standby mode, hold both fader start buttons, power on, channel 2 red light blinks for about 1 second, then all lights on second channel go solid, and second from the bottom green light on ch1 is solid as well. Tried multiple drives, 1.04 firmware file as well, no change. Saw one other person with issue in forum, no responses as to how to fix. Help??

sorry for the triple post. going to zero the drive to make sure the djm update isn't failing because of old data on the drive.

@Quinn > How did you format the flash drive?

tried fat32 and fat16 through both Windows format utility and Gparted. zeroed the drive using both erasing all files and 'cat /dev/zero > file' and deleting that file, and 'ddr if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb' and reformatting to fat32
