Alright Jimout here's The Box PVR update procedure from start to finish:

1.Download the firmware update from the URL below:

http://www.4shared.com/account/file/7517...081208_FIX.html


2.Decompress this file using WinRar ? you can download WinRar from link below, http://www.download.com/WinRAR/3000-2250_4-10007677.html and save its contents to a folder on your Laptop.

3.Connect your Laptop to The Box PVR using a USB A (rectangular std. connector) to B (square connector) cable ? kinda? USB cable you?d connect a PC / Laptop to a printer.

4.On The Box PVR control select Menu, HDD Mode Change (Default Pin: 0-0-0-0). After keying in Pin HDD Mode Change will have changed from PVR to PC.

5.On your Laptop you should now see an extra harddrive in My Computer ? assuming you?re using a MS Windows O/S. Navigate to the downloaded folder that you previously decompressed and copy the file called ?TheBoxPVR_v3105_08Dec2008.bin? to the ?Firmware? folder on the newly available harddrive.

6.Disconnect the USB cable from your Laptop, then on The Box PVR re-enter the Pin code (0-0-0-0). This will change the decoders harddrive back to PVR mode and The Box PVR will automatically reboot and flash the new firmware.

7.Once the firmware has been successfully flashed the Box will be back to Factory Default. Go to System Setup and switch Key Code to On. Then enter Parental Control & key in i2007 & switch Autoupdate On and press exit.

8.Lastly press Menu ? Installation & change cable network to NTL and carry out an Autoscan, all going right that should be you sorted out.

All the best,

Dubuser.
