Howdy, have a problem updating the box super with the new uk fix, I will give you all the detail I can, here is what I did in sequence, i updated a box super no probs with gtrom all in one uk fix, I then tried to update another with the same setup and it got to 100% and hung for a while before saying "flash update failed". Now when I reboot the box it displays Boot - ld80 - and finally rests at dl on the display. I have tried to reload every box super firmware version available while it is in this state and again the progress bar goes up to 100% both on the gtrom and on the front display, the gtrom near finish says "flash burning" but always fails. The display on the front of the box ends up with F.L_E. The box was booting ok before the update with version 6.0. I have checked the bad flash thread but it is not relevant here. I checked the known clone features and both boxes appear genuine, 25x7 vents, cpu has vertical lines rather than spikes etc. It appears the attempted flash has messed up the bootloader\bios, is there a way to reset this, even physically are there jumpers that can be switched? Any help much appreciated.
