    Actually you are probably right, wait for Sc0user or HiTeck I think they may be better able to sort this!

    having a bit of fun trying to flash my box t as well. i downloaded winRAR as i zapped my comp a few months ago and lost the programme i used last time to open the firmware. I have the right cables etc. but when i click on the firmware saved on my desktop it just opens up the window that offers me the chance to extract the file etc. could this be because i have the cable in the wrong usb port as i remember that only one of my ports worked last time but i thought i put it in the right one...gonna play around a bit longer but just could you just let me know that winRAR is the right one to have for the firmware. also is there anything else i need to do as its a year since i flashed it and i've forgotten everything i did!
