when you say you did step by step what Malci told you ...are you sure you have the correct cable..its not the one that came with the box, it looks the same but is wired differently, have a look here:

I cant see the supplier giving you a true NULL MODEM cable, but look tell me exactly step by step how your trying to flash, we might have missed something!

when you turn on the box... turn it to standby just press the button at the front of the box ( you will see the time 12.00) then pressdownload!!
