Flash it as there are no codes here anymore http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/663923

EDIT Two opinions are always better :)

cheers il check the link out now

Also do a factory setting as some ch@nnels have moved freq's

Menu > Factory Setting
PIN 0000
OK to delete

Turn box off at the back for a minute and turn back on

English > Installation
Choose Provider TW
Automatic Scan
Press OK
Channels found
Exit

Press Menu then 1570
Turn EMU key ON

Exit , exit , exit

Press Menu then 1570 and press the "Set Default Key" , press OK , Exit 3 times and tune into S*Y Sports and it should auto update for you.

Remember if none of the above codes work, the master pin code 1668.

Wahey im back watchin s*y sports again! =), ended up flashin mi box, got a null modem cable then downloaded software it was pretty easy after all instructions from you guys, cheers noelyf, sc0user, celtic71 and tam2005. How long do these things tend to last these days, till they have to be flashed again? Cheers again anyways much appreciated, can't wait for footie season start again, oh un by the way liverpool rule!!! ha =)

Glad you got it sorted and happy viewing :)

You could get 6 months / 12 months before it needs to be flashed again , all depends on the CC (cable company) ;)

live every day like its your last lol, nah the current firmware has been running smoothly since april. So thats a fair estimate at what your looking at.

As soon as it does goes down, its usually only a matter of days before a fix is released.
