Default Stuck on tf300 Firmware on TF700...No Idea how to go back HELP

As the title says. I uploaded the tf300 firmware while rooted and an unlocked bootloader. I had twrp

I've heard that flashing the 'update' removes root and relocks the bootloader.

I really have no idea how to go back to ICS but i've read that theres a way. I just can't find any clear directions.

just download the new rom from asus and flash it in recovery.
when it reboots you will be back to stock with new bootloader.

I thought the bootloader went untouched by reflashing the stock ROM? (I might be mistaken here, but isn't that the entire issue with not being able to get back to the ICS bootloader after flashing the JB bootloader?)

No you can't relock. Not sure where the op may have heard that as I have not seen it posted anywhere.
Might be confused with losing root?

It was removed from the asus site, could you provide a link?

Also....do I need to rename it to anything and place it anywhere specific? Because I have already tried and it doesnt work for me. When i go into recovery i get the android with the exclamation point in red. So....idk....

you do need to unzip it since it is double zipped for some reason.
then flash as usual.
