DFU not detected, BTT board not detected, can't flash my BTT Octopus v1.1

Hi all, I'm trying to follow along with the RatOS configurator, I flash the Raspberry Pi, have RatOS up and running with the pretty dashboard

(this is my third time I keep re-flashing the Pi thinking I'm doing stuff in the wrong order... which I may have done)

I go into the configurator and klippy and moonraker are both green, I have the BTT Octopus v1.1 plugged in (from the start this time, so whilst the Pi was flashing). I follow the wizard, selecting my BTT Octopus v1.1, previously I've had the DFU boot option, but the system couldn't detect my BTT/DFU boot. This time round there is only the flash manually option (picture 1), I've tried pressing the restart button on my BTT, still no DFU option.

I go into the manual flash option, download the compile and download the firmware, put it onto a black SD card with 4kb allowance size, put this into the BTT board and turn everything off and on again, RatOS mainsail dashboard reappears (picture 3), I check the configurator and the BTT board still isn't detected and the check board status button does nothing (picture 2), however I do have a flash status light on my BTT board now... not sure if I ever had that before.

does anybody have any insight into where I'm going wrong/where I'm going wrong? I'm sure its me but I don't know what.

any help would be great as I've been playing around with this for a few days now and still stuck.
