    does the number appear on the box. what number does it say? sounds like a capacitor problem. but try reflashing it first (putting the software on).

    can anyone help please,this may sound daft but i have just bought a starview 3 box the box super,i am trying to flash the box but think there is either something wrong with the cable or the box.i bought a 9 pin to usb cable from ebay,but when i connect it up i keep getting usb device not recognized,i didn't get a disc with the box so i assume u don't need one.at the moment i am connecting my new cable to the one supplied then connecting the female end of the cable supplied to the box,am i doing this right?i assume it is coz the cabes i see on ebay and maplins are male 9 pin to usb and you obviously need female to plug into back of pc,i can't see female to usb anywhere.can anyone explain simply what i may be doing wrong or how to connect properly,i have all the software downloaded on pc ready to go but can't use it yet.
