Further trouble

Thank you for your reply!

I think I'm going to have to try that too. After I updated fastboot, things went smoothly until I tried to flash system.img as below:

Do you recommend I flash all with -w as my best option now?

I followed TheDonXR's advice to manually enter the flash-all batch file commands (without the -w of course!) and everything seemed to go smoothly this time. (System booted sucessfully to 7.1.1.). Thank you, TheDonXR for your timely advice!

Here is the output for your reference.
