I assume you are using the correct loader and firmware? When you open up the loader "Type" should be FTA_model - yes?

If you have the firmware from here http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/f99/new-kryptview-fix-30-11-08-a-14249/ you will be ok. Alternatively try this one http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/f99/kryptview-firmware-fix-281108-a-13489/

just in case the bin file has somehow become corrupted. pot back to see if works.

Bob lots of people have problems flashing from a laptop especially with vista. This thread may give you an insight.

try pressing download whilst the box is turned off at the mains. as you press download turn the box on quickly.
