    well it's a cable issue then. when you press download it should start. turn off the box at the back and press download and then turn it on and see if it starts.

    iv read in a few threads people having problems with vista...it might be worth trying it on a widows xp if you can...also if you're doing it on a lappy have you made sure that your com ports are matching up and have you installed your usb adaptor?

    Hey everyone!

    Yet again I come running ye're way for help.

    I have The Box - it was working perfectly until a few weeks ago when all of a sudden 'Bad or Scrambled channel' appeared on all the channels. When I brought up the list of channels the dollar sign was beside each channel. I checked that the EMU was on - it was but the problem still persists. I hit factory settings and uploaded all the channels again - but same problem.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks in advance!

    go into the menu, 1570 and press set default key and then exit out and wait for an update.

    Your best bet would be to go to the link provided below, with regards to updating, courtesy Celtic - read all down the page and make sure that your Adaptor is correctly installed and assigned to same COM port as the loader - I am aware that a lot of people seem to have problems with Vista, but go here and I hope it helps you >>>>>

    The box has to be on standby okay, and the firmware is up to you really, what are you trying to put on at the minute.
