First off--the sensor update file on windows XP using IE would not load on the normal button click--need to right click that file to save it.
Ran into the following while loading:
3.0 loaded normally but then shut off Skyview--it would not come back on for a couple of minutes--when it did, it updated the bios and then shut off again. Turned it back on and it was not recognizing the ADAHARs or the EMS module. Issue was that it did not automatically reconfigure the firmware on the 2 modules. Did that manually from system setup and all is fine. Overall, a really nice update and worth the few extra steps.
One other thing worth mentioning..the G meter does not immediately show up. It is programmed to take the place of the HSI whenever you exceed 2 Gs and has color alarms at various point that are programmable from the setup page. You can also set it up to come on at whatever G level you'd like.

Were you upgrading off the backup battery? If on master power all the reboots should be automatic, but if you were using the battery then the behavior your describe is expected.

Mine did a similar thing; rather than reboot, it went into a mode where the backlight came on for about a second, about every 10 seconds. I had to power down and back up and it then booted normally. Seems fine though.
