I found the solution myself by searching at this forum.
Yes, you have to replace the three .elf files in the root of the SD

Tonight I did several other attempts with Windows7 and WXP but no succes.
Just write the image with W32 disk Imager it can't be more easy!
But the Pi won't boot, only red led.
What am I doing wrong???

My SD card is OK because before I did install Raspbmc without any problem on it.

I am desperate

I bought myself a Pi, at first for watching movies with Openelec.
After I take another class 10 - 4 GB SD card and installed Raspfy exactly conform the quick start guide on this site.
This is really very easy and everything went without any problem.
The SD card was format FAT32 and was perfectly recognized by the win32 image writer.
Then I put the SD in the Pi which was connected with a 1.5 TB HDD with a lot of music.
Just for testing I used the analog output of the Pi connected with my Denon stereo amplifier.
Put the power on..........and wait..........but only a red led on the Pi and no boot at all!
Also no webinterface of course.
What the hell can go wrong with such a simply proces.
I downloaded Raspfy a second time, but still the same.
Yes I selected the .img file and......just write.

Please help me with this bad start.
