    Have you done a factory default then a powerscan after flashing the box, 0001 is the time, if you watch it long enough it will change to 0002, LOL.

    its the eurovox max blue i have flashed it before with no problems when they last went off. i have flashed about 5 of them and they are all fine its just this one. if it was a clone i don't think it would of worked last time i flashed it. its strange do you think it might of just packed in

    Try connecting it to your TV via a RF coax cable, if you have just flashed it's not going to let your change channel because you haven't any channels to change to.

    When you have connected the RF socket you will have to tune in your TV like you would if you had connected a video recorder.

    i have looked at it mate and it has the green components with 100 wrote on. the clone picture doesn't have them and the pull down bit at the front is all black i have heard that clones are not completly sprayed but it doesn't have the top yang sticker on like the pic of the genuine one does and mine has the qc stickers on like the clone picture has on them?

    same happened to mine when i flashed it - thought i had killed it.

    wasn't sure about the flashing part did it last time in april so was going on memory.
    reflashed it with info i got from here - saw if system reset comes up you unplug box press download and then just follow prompts, did all that and worked the next time.

    Its a clone mate :(

    Is it a red or blue eurovox check via picture, I know you said it was a blue but doesn't hurt to make sure.

    That is the top of the box not the side! Counting from the back to the front of the box looking down on it (Birds eye view) how many does it cover.
