If no firmware is installed ON MY PRUSA I3 will it still run? For I am thinking maybe that no firmware was not installed on the electronics, thats why maybe my laptop does not recognize it.

i am having problem connecting my laptop to the prusa i3 printer, it gives a dull noise when Insert the USB, I am using windows 7.

If no firmware can I install it using the SD card?

here is an example if you use slic3r
slicer3r [manual.slic3r.org]

look here under size and coordinates [manual.slic3r.org]

or you could reach richraps guide that can help. [richrap.blogspot.com]

no one can help you with step by step unless we know what slicing program you are using for gcode.

There are several manuals, But it looks like you have solved your connectivity issue and now have moved on to a print issue.

What software are you using? Most of the time if you just google "Using (software name here) to print 3d " it will pop up several videos on that software.
