Hello, I really need your help people.

I decided to flash my DM500 with a Nabilosat DarkStar II Image, using DCC. However when I turn on my Dreambox, it shows the: Time Settings and Language, but when I save it pressing the 'Green Button' it starts to reboot itself, it happens every-time I do this.

So I bought my self a PCI Serial Port Card, as my PC didn't have a serial port for the null cable, however I can't seem to install the drivers for Serial Port card.

So in other words I am having trouble connecting to DreamUp. Without this I can't flash my Dreambox :(

Is there any help you can give me?

Much Appreciated.

I'm also having the same problem, did you manage to get it sorted?

Try removing the PCI card and re-booting the PC with it removed. Then switch off and install it again - that sometimes works.

Also check if you can find different drivers, especially if using a newer OS like Win7
