246 loading issue

I am trying to load 246 on 9800. Every time it keeps getting stuck at configuring boot ROM.

Any ideas why? I have downloaded from several places. Have tried loading from desktop manager and from loader file in file directory. Backup and all works fine till I reach configure boot ROM and it stalls out. The phone returns to normal working mode, with nothing being loaded.

Thanks.

that happened to me when i was loading .225--just restart you pc/laptop, reinstall the OS, reboot your phone, then try again. mine worked.
