It never stopped flashing. Does this mean the controller is a goner?
what do you mean by never stopped flashing? If you mean that the 'wheel" never stops turning-it does that, but it does
NOT mean that process was not finished (I know, it is kind of counterintuitive). However, i just logout or reset browser after 10 min, then restart the PSU, log in and you should be OK, unless as you posted, controller is not functioning, which is rare.
