    Hi steo & vicky, was off flashing a few there meself.
    Vicky, as take that once said "have a little patience" lol
    The SV2 will eventually kick in.
    Set the default key & try s*y two again, if it doesnt work, turn the b0x off at the back for about 15 secs & try a few movie channels.
    It will come in on one of them.

    then it should update the ones i flashed worked but it updates 3 times before the channels work. have you tried setting the default key and leaving on sky 2 for a few minutes?

    I did 8 SV 2`s today & all are up & running, just tkes a while to kick in .
    Not much difference in flashing the EV`s steo, although i`d prefer to stick to the sv`s.

    Heading off for a while, talk to you later mate.
    Best of luck vicky, talk to you soon.

    i find sv's easier and faster than ev's but ev's are still kind of easy with the right firmware. except for channel scans on ev i hate the scans on them they take forever without a channel dump.

    it has to be a null modem cable not just a standard rs232.

    also make sure the box is on.

    if it still fails:

    if it's a null modem go to device manager in the control panel on your computer and go to the ports.

    select properties on the correct port and go to port settings and press advanced. change the port to a port between 1-4 thats not in use.

    make sure all cables are tight.

    hi there, iam trying to update the box super and get as far as loading all channels but when I switch to sky 2 it is still scrambled. I have followed all your steps as outlined but I can't seem to find anything labelled emu in the menu. If i am i missing something really obvious can you please point me in the right direction. My box justsays 'The Box Super' on it and I have downloaded fix for starview the box 2. thank you
