Hi.. I am also having some problems! I have The Box Super and eventually today got the correct cables (I hope, USB to Serial and Null Modem)). However every time I try to update it remains at 0% and I get the message Flash Update Fail!!! Any advice appreciated! Thanks

Hi Scouser, Des, Celtic and the usual geniuses...

Just got back from a Christmas break and, although my genuine 'The Box Super' is *seemingly* working fine and auto-updating on 8.02e (29/11/08) in Manchester area, I find that there is a later firmware called 8.04e (24/12/08). Trouble is, I can't find out what it is supposed to fix. Is there are changelog for it anywhere? Will I be needing to flash again? I've come over all confused, thanks lads.

Happy new year BTW. :)

macnaxos, i have answered your other post. The easiest thing to do is to get to a pc with xp and a serial port and just use the null modem cable, the usb can be quite confusing.

You can get a usb adaptor but it gets much more complicated. If you can get access to desktop pc with xp on it you will find it much easier to flash.

I don't know much about sv3, are you using a usb or just a null modem cable? And are you on vista or xp?

Edit: Are you sure you have a null modem cable and not just an ordinary rs232?

Hi, I've got all the right cables now, and got a starview 3 box, but I think I need to change the ports. Unfortunately the disc I have for the USB converter is a bit crap and isn't installed properly, and I don't think I can change the ports while this is the case.
Anybody know what the problem could be? I've been told the port is set at 72 and I need to change it to 1-4

Have a look at this guide, the secret is to get the Adaptor assigned to the correct COMM port. >>>>>>>>>>>>

I don't think the thing is installed properly so it doesn't show up. My comp can't find any update drivers for it either or anything to install it, that's why I can't get on device manager
