Starview the box help please

i have plugged my null modem in and when i try to download my firmware from emo the windows computer says it doesnt reconise the file so i cant open it also can u tell me that when i bought the the box should i have gotten a cd software with it : cause i dont see any red arrow which is suppose to be the loading software helpp


Plug the RS232 lead into the back of the box and to your PC.

• Plug the box into the mains and turn it on. It should display ON, on the display

• Double click the red arrow which is the loading software

• Now click the bin file button

• Double click the starview file

• Now click download (this will take a few minute)

 

Is it a Starview or "The Box" and what firmware, (bin file) are you downloading to it?

 

its the box and when i donwloaded emos firmware i cant open it cause the windows does not no the source

do u have tahoo messneger or msn u can help me with

 

Better to do it here as it will help other users also.


Was it the Irish V4.5 or the UK V4.51 firmware.

when i downloaded it windows said it cant open file because it needs to know what programme created it

 

You need to download the gtromloader also, this will allow you to load the firmware to the SV. The gtromloader can be found in Eamos Library at the end of my post, in the Starview Software Folder.

This is the red arrow you are looking for. Please save the gtromloader in the same folder as the bin file you have.

 

i dont have a bin file

 

Oh yes you do

Is your provider N*L over there ?
if its not put in your own area provider ( eg TW )

Obviously you have followed all the advise above have you checked that you cables are connected correctly?

 

Also you say you are in N** land so why are you scanning on Tele****?
