I have downloaded the .dmg from MU and directly from Apple's site 3 times now but each time I get this warning when opening the .dmg http://i.imgur.com/r1p5pZ8.png I have seen this with other DMGs before but it's not very confidence inspiring for a firmware update that could brick your computer if anything goes wrong. MacBook late 2008 running 10.8.2. Anyone else have this problem?

Need to load the EFI firmware first. Hope these two fix the unable to return from lid down sleep problems.

I installed SMC Firmware 1.1 on my 2 GHz MacBook, which was *not* exhibiting the sudden shutdown problem as far as I could tell, as is recommended by Apple. There have been no issues with the update.

How is it going to fix a hardware problem? They should replace the heat sink.

Finally! I didn't anticipate a software fix to the RSS (random shutdown syndrome) problem. Fingers crossed now!
