Help Help with a looping I9000M and Odin

Hello all,

I'm new here, specifically for this problem. I did a search, there seems to be a few threads with similar issues, but I found I wasn't able to help myself with them. Hopefully someone can give me a hand.

Last week I woke up to find my Vibrant stuck in a loop where it would show the startup screen, where it gives the model number, for about 2 seconds before powering down and starting up again. I took it in to Bell (the carrier) and the service manager suggested I check online for Odin and instructions on how to flash it to another version of the OS.

I began looking around, and because I'm a noob at this, got overwhelmed. I have no idea what firmware or drivers to use in Odin.

On top of that I have noticed that the phone no longer loops. If I try to start it now, it shows a screen with a phone icon connected to a computer icon, with a warning sign in between, but will not start up.

REally I guess what I am looking for is some info on what firmware I should be using in Odin, or some good step by step instructions for total noobs at this.

Thanks.
