    Turn your box off at the back and then back on again i presume you where using the epg when this happened if so that is the problem those boxes wher not meant for the irish market to work on the epg that is why you are having this problem as sometimes a corrupt packet gets into the system and causes a lock up of the box only way to clear it is to turn the box off at the back let me know how you get on thanks

    The epg is the program guide the button on the right just over the blue button on the remote

    Ok if that did not work unplug the box from the wall and leave for about 10 min and then plug it back in again

    Also check the scart lead that you have plugged into it that it has not become dislodged as well from either the box or the tv check the pins to see if any of them are pushed in and if you have a spare scart lead you could try that as well and see if it makes any difference ok

    Can you tell me before you update your box what firmware was on it if you updated it to the latest and you did not put the logo file on it this could be the problem also

    Try reflashing your box to the file that was on it before you put the new one on it could be corrupt file that you put on it try that and let me know thanks

    Lorr pay no attention to that post as he obliviously has not been reading your problem and is just throwing stuff in here willy nilly

    Did you reflash your box yet

    Ok, No still waiting on the cables to be brought back to me should me in the next few days anyway. So as soon as i do that i will let you know how it goes. and i e mailed the man i got it off telling him i will be sending the box back if it does not work for me and he is not replying. so hopefully it will work for me or ive waisted my money.
