Precise steps to fix a Predator with an "Application Missing or Corrupt" message:
  1. Download and install the latest DS Downloader from HERE
  2. Download the latest CROM file for your predator from HERE after selecting your Predator part.
  3. Connect the Predator to the PC but do NOT power it on yet.
  4. Run DSDownloader on your PC.
  5. From the Options menu, choose Auto Detect to un-check it (Auto Detect cannot work with a corrupt Predator).
  6. Click on the "Express Tune Mode" tab at the bottom.
  7. Select the appropriate COM port and baud rate settings on the toolbar (the defaults are probably correct, but these may need tweaking).
  8. Click on the "Send CROM file to Predator" button.
  9. Select the CROM file that you downloaded earlier.
  10. Now power up the Predator.
  11. After a couple of minutes your Predator should reboot and no longer be corrupt.
