I've downloaded the PC file you provide, and extracted the .rar file to my desktop. I am following you along and am currently in iTunes restore mode where I select the iOS 3.1.3 file, but iTunes is not recognizing any iOS file in the extracted file folder. What is the file name I am looking for in this RecBoot extracted file folder?

My iPhone 3GS wont come out of recovery mode even with the RecBoot
