    ok, try it on your laptop first if you say it fits. download the firmare file from here:
    maxv firmware here: http://www.box.net/shared/static/m5eo2cbkkg.rar

    The password to download it is: techwatch

    its worth checking that the cable between you laptop and your eurovox fits at both ends before we proceed any further. if they do fit then you need to download the files i have posted.

    you seem to be contradicting yourself, have you flashed the firmware and did you backup your channel data?

    hi simon

    just downloaded the firmware for the blue box and transfered it to my eurovox via cable which all seemed ok til it got to the end and said download failed

    am i sending the right information.

    i think i have a blue box because the packaging box is blue.
    it is a eurovox max 2006

    edit :

    when i click upload, it now says version 2.10,
    previously it said version 1.00

    has it worked, i haven't turned it back off standby yet
