first of all you need to know what box it is is it black max v 2008 or is it red or blue .. the red and blue has a silver strip on the front check here to see if any of them are your box http://www.freewebs.com/tempfix/redorblue.htm .....if its a blue box then try the link in my signature to check if its a blue clone or not

Thanks Tempo2006 and HiTeck ,I had already checked the box from previous threads on this forum but checked the box again as suggested from your sites and inside and out tells me it?s not a clone ? It will let me download firmware ufl blue box max 21/04/08 , 2.1 ok but when I try to load Kuro 28/04/08 off your or any link it comes up version not fit for your receiver after step 3 . At a complete loss now as it worked on the other boxes. Sorry for delay Saturday shopping! Anyone any idea what?s going off ?

kuro will not work on a blue box and should only be used on eurovox max v black 2008

thanks Karljd but I am almost sure I loaded kuro on the other blue boxes I did.( might be losing my mind as this one I seem to have tried eveything on previous threads! ) Should I try it with firmware ufl blue box max 21/04/08 , 2.1 only ? seem to have lost my way on this one.

yeah thats the most up to date firmware for genuine blue boxes,if you did load kuro on them boxes you will need to reflash them with the blue firmware

1. Hook up your Eurovox to your PC using a null modem cable. (9 pin female to 9 pin female). Null Modem Cable must be used, looks the same as a standard RS232 lead but it is wired differently.
2. Run the Kuro Unified Flash Loader (download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?xynenwxvyjy )
2a (Optional step: Press the Upload button to save your channel set up favourites etc as they currently are) Save this to a folder on your PC for use later.
3. Click on the 'download' button at the top of the screen.
4. The program will say 'Version 2.10 detected' (or it may say some other version!) and restart your Eurovox, it will then go through the downloading process, when finished it
will display 'Downloading is successful' .
5 . Press the Menu button on your remote, and then go into 'Config' menu and select 'Clear Data'
6. It will then ask for your PIN (default is 0000)
7.Then select 'Factory Default'
8. It will then ask you to select the symbol rate (I use 6.887 as I am on NThell Dublin).not sure if this matters at this stage though.
9. Press OK when 'Reset to Factory Default Settings' comes up
10. It will then say 'Wait to Factory Settings' and will then start to do a Full Power Scan (using the Symbol rate you selected earlier or you can change the symbol rate here)
11. It will then search through for channels, Go and make a cup of tea while it works away, do not interrupt it until it finishes.
12. It wil then exit to allow you to view your programs, but the code being updated message will probably come up for a while,
13. Put the box onto Sky Sports and go make another cup of tea. It may only take a few mins but again do not interrupt it (even if you think it is not working!)
14. Sky Sports will come up and all your channels will be back and you won't have to manually enter your codes anymore.
15. If you did the optional step at 2a, then browse to where you saved your file (CDF file) and click download in the lower box on the Kuro program, and it will reload your favourites etc. as
you originally had them.

just seen your message in my shout ... if its red you need red firmware dated 21/04/08 which you prob already have so if you detected the version thats good then you should just have to hit start but make sure your box is on standby and that all pipe connections are dissconected and scarts

When it is at the 'system reset' stage, unplug the box from the mains and then plug it back in. It should then kick in to life and go through the update.
Whatever you say, say nothing when you talk about you know what for if you know who might hear you, you know what youll get. Youll be sent off to you know where for you would not know how long. Maybe I could search through the threads so you dont have to ??

Emulation key should be on by default, but if you want to check it - Menu and OK on Language Settings 4 settings appear - type 1968 and Emulation and Emm Capture will appear, leave Emm Capture disabled.
See you are all sorted on another thread !!!.
