It's a pinging sort of squeaky sound. I've been getting it intermittently this evening.

CC = Cable Company

Im sorry to confuse you

You can try a factory setting to see if it helps

Press Menu > Factory Setting
PIN 0000
OK to delete

Turn box off at the back for a minute and turn back on

English > Installation
Choose Provider (N*L) etc
Automatic Scan
Press OK
*** Channels found
Exit

Menu 1570
Turn EMU key ON

Exit , exit , exit

That all looks very dangerous LOL The last time I did that sort of thing, I ruined my previous box :( And this is only a bit of pinging which I haven't even noticed today anyway. Is it worth doing all this? What is the worst thing it could be?

lol , if it was dangerous I wouldnt give you the advice to do it and it only takes less than 5 mins to do

If its not a major problem then leave it be as I said it could be a cable company glinch and it will sort itself out

Its up to you :)

By listening to people on this site (NOT you !) and playing around with the remote

So should I just leave it?

Definitely best not to touch anything, especially when there is so much that can go wrong if you press the wrong button inadvertenly. :)

Why do you use these *** all the time? I haven't seen them in your previous threads LOL And thousands of messages are written about Starview

I use them cos when you type in Starview , etc it creates a hyperlink within the text and I dont like that lol

Also for some reason we have to use them like N*L and Telewe*t etc

Does this make sense
