    Hi Paul,

    I have nokia DBox2, i tried to update my flash but something goes wrong in between and i copy the whole var folder via ftp to dbox again which i took as a backup on my laptop,since then everytime i plug it on it boot twice and by the looks of it everything looks normal on LCD as well as on TV screen but after few seconds all goes blank.......no display on LCD and on TV screen, LCD display showing just green light. when i tried to use any buttons on remote its not doing anything apart from when i press home its reboot again.

    I was thinking about to flash the image again but i can not do anything as i can't see anything on my tv screen.

    Is there anyway i can connect DBOX with my laptop? i tried to connect box in same condition via ethernet with the IP address i know and other combinations but nothing worked, i was thinking to connect via RS232 cable, do i need any special software to connect box via RS232 or is there any special settings i have to define if i connect via windows hyper terminal ??

    please help me i really need it working otherwise it's all waste of money so please advise me.

    thanks in advance

    Thanks for your help paul, i managed to reflash my box and its working okay now but i am still not able to scan anything i wonder if you can send me Neutrino image or any good tested image of yours also i need cables.xml or satellites.xml, services.xml and scan.conf and do i need to copy all these files in \var\tuxbox\config apart from image file?

    (can you please confirm about this statement)
    The file scan.conf located in \var\tuxbox\config must include one of the Providers/Satellites listed in the Frequencys within cables.xml or satellites.xml located in \share\tuxbox\ or \var\tuxbox\config depending on the Image you are using.

    you can send files directly to me on analyst_pk@yahoo.com
    Thanks in advance
