Hey lads trying to flash a nokia dbox2 at the mo using ifa.i have a laptop with windows vista and have flashed the box i have now before with just the crossover cable.problem is i can't remember exactly how i did it!! i remember having problems before alrite but think there's something minor that i'm doing wrong.all of the guides are based on windows xp so its hard to follow step by step.its annoying as i have flashed this very box before! i've been using 2 sets of ip & gateway settings.when i hit start on the ifa & plug the box in it just boots up as normal & the ifa says 'waiting for dbox to start'.any help would be much appreciated.

i heard a few people across some of the threads saying that the box won't flash on vista with a null modem cable.i remember the last time i flashed this box i only used the ethernet cable.i've been using the guide downloaded from eamos for ip settings etc.last time i flashed the box i was messing around with the network settings on the laptop and managed to get it working.problem is can't remeber what settings though!!
