Can't root - firmware too new??

Just got a Dinc, coming from a DX. Trying to root using Unrevoked. I updated the drivers via the instructions on their site and it went fine. Ran Unrevoked and it went through the whole process of rebooting and then I get an error message saying "process failed - is your firmware too new". I have 2.2 and from what I've read I've done everything correctly and others have gotten this to work. I have the phone in disk drive mode.

Any suggestions??

The program says “Error: failed to get root. Is your firmware too new?”
If you're on EVO 4G, we've seen this happen with some applications from the market that cause incompatibilities; try uninstalling other apps. If you're on Wildfire, then the message is as it suggests; your firmware is in fact too new, and has the vulnerability that we use to get root patched. Sorry.
