Mooley,
Was away for sometime and hope to sort my tv now.As you advised i hv the two files you mentioned opening up.I hv jst followed the advice on how to download the firm ware onto the box but realised i had my box powered on instead of having it on standby.I can only go into the menu channel now and can't go into the other channels.Is there any help?
Thanks mate.

Reflash it?
Or have you tried to rescan on your provider now in the menu?

When i enter the password for factory resetting, it is asking for the language and then taking me to istallation,choosing providder and then automatic or manual scanning.Is that the right thing for facctory resetting?

Just press ok on reset factory settings then when you get to the language screen switch off at the back then switch back on then update firmware then do another factory reset then go through the process of scanning, emu on etc.

Right click on my computer down to properties into device manager down to com ports right click on that and into properties. Go into the port settings tab and change the baud or bit rate to 11520 press on advanced button at the bottom and change com port at the bottom to between 1 and 4 apply/ok any changes and reboot.






TOP SETTING TO 11520 THEN PRESS ADVANCED



CHANGE TO BETWEEN 1 AND 4 AND MAKE SURE YOU APPLY AND SAVE ON THE WAY OUT

ok first off, Vista is not working for 90% of people, so that is your first issue, and there are 2 types of null modem cables, 1 is a straight thru one, the other is the correct one.

This is the correct one below.




This one is the wrong one.



But i would say you main problem is Vista
