Thats my advice mate, i tried for about 2 months and various forums to get a box flashed using Vista and the usb cable and it just did'nt work i ended up buying an old £60 laptop of fleabay that had the null modem connection on the back then put XP on it and never had a problem since.

Have you got the EMU turned on, menu, press 1570 on the remote and check its turned on if it is press OK to set the default key, exit out and see what happens.
