Hello Thanks for replying been away for awhile, ok it says: API ver: 3.00e_E Boot ver: 7.0 Hope this helps.
You will need a null modem cable DB9F to DB9F. Null modem info here http://www.maplin.co.uk/Search.aspx?criteria=L71BT&DOY=2m6 If your pc does not have a serial port you will need a USB to serial port adapter to use in conjunction with the null modem cable. USB Adapter info here http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx...lin&U=SearchTop&T=usb serial adapter&doy=8m11 These two cable links are only for reference as they can be purchased alot cheaper on fleabay. All firmware/loader can be found in the link at the end of my post marked Eamos FTA Library. You will need the GTromloader, (Starview Software Uploader), found in the Starview software folder of the link. You will need version 4.00 firmware found in the Starview firmware folder. And please download the Starview PDF guide, this will give you step by step instructions on how to do everything.This can be found in the Starview Documentation folder in the link.

Thanks Celtic & Scouser much obliged, have to go and get the 9 pin adaptors tomoz, one thing I've got the software thanks, can I just link up my starview to the computer and run program or do I also have to link to my TV at same time, just my computer and tv are in separate rooms. My understanding is you just link the starview to computer run the dowloads and once done re-assemble the box to tv and hey presto!I hope. Ta.
Yes , you disconnect the SV from the TV and connect it to the PC , put it on stand-by , run GT ROM LOader and download the firmware 4.00 and wait till the pop up 100% complete If you have a 9 pin port you dont need the USB adapter
Hi Guys (Celtic, Scouser & C019) Well I've done the download to version 4 let's hope it works, got the ports from Maplin, didnt realise I had a nine pin port at back - good old refunds policy. Anyway, just quick email to say thanks guys for all your help potentially saved me binning my SV. Keep up the good work. Sanjiro30 - S,Wales.
