    Hi guys,

    I know this is an old thread.
    I had same problem with The Box Super.
    Opened the back of it ... there is a white connector which comes from the switch at the back of the box .... it had come loose.
    Just a matter of plugging back into circuit board.
    Hope that works.

    My only problem now is getting all my channels up and running !!

    Hi Folks,

    Sorry to re-hash the same old problem but I have two genuine Box Supers (25 x 7 slots) and they have suddenly got no power at all. They have worked fine for last 8 months and then just stopped.

    I've had both open and looked to see if anything loose but Nada.

    Greatly appreciated if anyone out there has a solution to this.

    I'm in Bray by the way.

    Many thanks,

    Dave

    Dave,
    Strange that both have same problem.

    1. Check there is power in the socket.
    2. check fuse in plug is OK

    3. Check the link from the on/off switch at the back of the box to the circuit boards. there is a white plastic connection that could be loose. This happened my box and some others on afterdawn.

    Let me know.

    Hi Joe90,

    It is a strange one. I've bought about 10 Boxes over the last 2 years for friends, relatives etc.

    Also strange that the two boxes were bought from different places so who knows why?????

    To answer your point, I have checked all leads, sockets, cables, switches etc and even got an Electrician to look at them for me and he was mystified too.

    Is there anything else you know of or do I just bin them?

    Many thanks for your help.

    Dave

    Hi guys, i've got a Starview 1 genuine. I'm updating with CryptStar-v1.5-Core400. The upload seems to work showing 100% complete and re-boots. Channel scan on Ex C&W only pick up about 20 channels. System info still says API Ver 4.00e_E Boot Ver 7.0 7.Jun.2007. Should the system info change to a later version after updating, maybe this means the upload failed. I have now manually input the latest codes but still not working. Any advice.

    System Info does not change, will still show that version and date, it is the version that was moddified to AU so that is okay. Have you tried a Factory Reset and fresh Installation, and are you sure that you are on your correct provider, what VM area are you in.

    Make sure that your LIVE cable feed is plugged into the Cable Input socket at the back, it just may have come out. No signal means exactly that okay, so no need to worry, it has come out or there is a fault in the area. What is your area, please state it and I can check your supplier.
