Action Replay DS Firmware 1.71 Problem

I know it's needed for the Black and White cheats. No prob. I downloaded the Firmware 1.71 update, and extracted the file from the zip.

The problem comes with the next step of updating. Codejunkies website says to drag the 1.71 file onto the big white bit on the Code Manager screen (while ARDS is connected and on the updating screen). It even has a little screenshot showing the file - with the +copy icon - hanging over the Code Manager. Codejunkies Firmware 1.71 page here.

Except, when I try to do this, I don't get the "copy" file icon, I get a black circle with a diagonal line running through it.

What the heck. What is so different about my Action Replay Code Manager that I can't drag and drop the firmware file onto it like Codejunkies says to? The only thing I've done is install the usb connection drivers (they didn't install when I installed the code manager to my comp), and then delete, from my cheat cartridge, all the useless cheats for the billions of games that I don't play.

Is it some bizarre Windows 7 thing messing with the Code Manager?
