    Default Dead Openbox x5 displays Red light only at power up.

    Hi There, Can someone help.
    I have an Openbox x5 that only shows a red light when powered up. I was trying to update the sofware some time ago last year and it has just died. I kept the box and I now I want to revive it.

    run the EromUpgrade.exe, set the Operate Mode to "Upgrade", Set the file to "Eromclient.abs" clicked "Next" and I get the Error Message saying "Wrong file!"
    What should the file be? I have tried the file: "KD_P9000E_HD_2013_06_22.bin" which gives the same error. Should the openbox be turned ON prior or after clicking "Next" still nothing.

    Have I missed something. What about the checkbox "Include bootloader" - it doesn't make any difference.

    I really put a lot of hope in this process. Still need help!
    Thanks for this suggestion, at least I'm trying something.
