    Hi ,

    Ive currently got a Starview Clone & Starview Genuine ..

    On the clone box i get a pixilezd Screen with a "0" or "8" showing up on the LCD. IS there an easy fix for this ?

    On the genuine box ive got no power, ive searched the forum for an "IDIOT Guide" and no luck .. could any 1 please point me in the correct direction ...


    Thanks
    Darren

    Ok for the clone you need to download this one:
    CryptStar-v1.4-Core257.bin
    and for the other one, you will need to turn it on press menu, press system info, and tell me what it says!!!

    Sorry about that... Didnt see the no power till i posted.... I think you will need to chec k the box itself, could be a fuse or something simple... or worse.. and you dont want to go there... A Jtag!!! check the obvious first and let us know!!

    Jaysus dont thank me yet!! LOL

    right from what I can see your looking to see the C11 capacitor on the PSU board, to see if its blown, if it is then it has to be replaced heres pictures of it, and see if theyre ok,:

    You can buy replacements in Maplins

    You dont need to Jtag it, just change the C11 cap. Up the voltage from 10V to 16V as its a while since I updated the instructions and have asked Martin to update the pic.
