dm800 stuck on loading

[fay28]

hi guys

got a dm800 with mage nab v12, when i flashed it was fine but then i could configure the box, took a break and and pulled the power, when ive gone back to it is now stuck on loading with the bar on the B letter. ive tried several other images but get the problem. i have been advised it may be a tuner problem

im thinking of returning it to the seller but i thought i would try here incase anyone can has solved this problem before.

thanks in advance.

its broke, return back to supplier ive had a few gone like that and if it doesnt do it now it will a few reboots later.. ive tried mine with loads a differant images and loaded image with serial cable

ok guys ive looked in to this further, and found out that when the tuner is removed then it boots, so the tuner is at fault.

anyone know best place to buy one?

[opsmonkey]

the box you bought is knackered.. send it back and get a full replacement

this is going through a paypal dispute as it was purchased off ebay

iim using scart m8. what do u mean?

[Wingnut]

my box started going the same,stuck on boot up, when i took tuner out it also booted up,i was baffled, i thought i try and take my dvi cable out (the hd cable) and boot up and it did, i realised my dvi cable was causing this prob,i bought a new one and all good, i see ur no using one so i dont no mate, try taking ur scart lead out and booting up, try boot it up with only power cable in, worth a try mate

[fay28]

tried that m8, it boots up fine with scart and without tuner

[Wingnut]

did it come with 1 years warranty?, much did u pay for it mate?

[fay28]

paypal granted my dispute, box is going back for a refund.
