    What kind of Staview did you get? Is it a Starview, The Box or The Super? go to the menu and press 1570, 1668 or 2004 and another page will come up where you change the emu

    Was it pre-flashed or did you flash it urself? Try flashing it again as once flashed, at least one of the 3 codes i gave you should work

    Just flash it with the firmware on this site. It will only take a minute or so and hopefully you will be up and running in no time. Ps The firmware is v4.51
