Are you using a null modem cable and the correct version of DreamUP?

Which image are you flashing?

My sis got it new in March and I flashed it for her . It was working fine until yesterday. I have never put Gemini on it.

It's possible the image is corrupt. Have you tried downloading it again and flashing it again (with a null modem cable).
