    You could also Double-check that it is actually a NULL modem cable that you have.

    Change it to Com 3 then try again.

    1, in usb properties select port settings,

    2, turn your bits per sec all the way up,

    3, then click on advance,

    4, click on the com port box and change that to 3 then press OK and exit.

    Hi Ruby, can you tell us what exaclty you downloaded from eamos, which loader and which bin date, I have not seen your error messages before (but others might), also when you try reconnect your TX to your TV will it boot and if it does can you go to config then system info and tell us what says in there.

    Hi mate, looks like a bootloader fault. There is a fix here. Haven't seen that error code but it looks like a pre boot code ;)

    The TX is prone to flash problems.

    Cheers mate another one of many from you to add to my fav's for future refs, I did see you mention this the other day but I think it was a 02 error message?.

    Just to add I have been collecting a few CDF's over the past week and will continue to do so, if its any help I have included it in my sig which you may have already seen :)

    Yep it usually 02, but I have seen one with a similar code not exactly the same as the OP but the chdl fix worked ;)

    Regards the CDFs I think I can find a home for them lol, many thanks as always. Quite a few there so will have to ask Eamo to make some room ;)

    Will try to keep them going (when time) and delete the old ones, i'm sure eamos can make room for these ;).

    Thats me for tonight :) speak soon.

    A reflash may sort that out. When it reverts to the 11/11/07 thats the problem. Make sure you do a factory reset after flashing with the 23/11/07 firmware.

    If you have a problem reflashing. Unplug the EV, hit download on the loader and then plug the EV back in. If you have a persistent problem use the chdl fix I have linked to above. This will repair the bootloader and allow you to flash as normal.
