    Flash FXP is a file transfer program
    You connect your D box to pc via a crossover
    And ftp the roms across
    Bringing your box back to life ..............Paul

    hi
    was wondering if someone can help if ive connected up to the dbox correctly.

    im using the image falsh assisstant ( hallenberg one). i have selected the image (latest commando 11) but

    i have 2 items to select in the network connection.these are
    a "intel pro /wireless 3945ABG network connection "and a "realtek RTL8101 family pci- e fast ethernet NIC" . i am assuming it is the first one.

    i have connected the dbox 2 with a crossover cable too to my laptop.

    the program doesnt work when i select the realtek but with the wirless network connection the progress box appears

    but when i power up the box nothing happens.i keep plugging in and out and still nothing.

    am i doing something wrong or connected it worngly.

    any help wuld be good . thanks

    sid

    Disable the wireless and go direct
    Set your pc nic to 10 and 1 half duplex
    Auto if on vista
    Also IFA 3.1 will work for Vista .................Paul

    Make sure its IFA 3.1
    Set your pc nic to Auto
    On your network card right click
    Properties
    Configure
    Advanced
    Flow controll set this to
    Connection type = Auto
    And flow controll =Enabled
    Try that now and lets know
    The above advice is for Vista users.....................Paul

    3.1 and above should work mate

    Make sure you are useing a crossover cable direct from D box to Laptop

    hi

    i have used the flash xp method to hook the box up to my laptop and revise the keys but i havent tried doing it with a new image.

    the problem i got is the there might something wrong with Mums dbox 2 as it freezes on load up and wanna check if i can do the ifa way as it does it on boot up. i cant get into the box to check or read the network settings or ip settings so im trying it this way to see if i can resolve it.

    ok - ive done everyhting you said in the ifa way and with vista. ill keep trying or otherwise the box might be buggered.

    anyway thanks for your help
    cheers

    hi all



    i think im getting there.



    firts thing i cant get the program to respond to the ethernet port of my laptop as im using vista.



    i took pauls advice and connected the dbox to the router with the crossover cable and then selected the wireless connection on the ifa.



    i did not slect the null modem at all.

    i hit strt then the box started and then froze. the green progress bar started and then it seemed to freeze on the ifa for a very long time (10mins plus) and then repeated it agin and the same.



    at least i have got the box to talk to my laptop which is beter than yeaterday..



    any further advice would be great as i seem to be making progress.



    by the way i selected a static ip address too and connected the null modem as well and still it doesnt seem to get past the same progress.



    hope to chat soon
