Flash it with null modem cable again its in the red stickies top of sat section.
There you go.....

hey mate use this guide below to flash the dm500s,
make sure your using a null modem cable (this is NOT the same as a serial or rs232 cable, although it looks the same)

pli jade 3 seems to be quiet stable
heres a link from the download section if you want that image
Digital Kaos - Downloads - PLi Jade3 - for the Dreambox DM500 (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/images/2/pli-jade3-dreambox-dm500-751/)

images are a matter of personal choice,
whatever tickles your taste buds i suppose! :)

At this price buy one cos you're bound to need one at some stage.

RS232 Null Modem Serial Cable 1.8M CABLE-138 | eBay (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RS232-Null-Modem-Serial-Cable-1-8M-CABLE-138-/260593052762?pt=UK_Computing_CablesConnectors_RL&hash=item3cac8e6c5a)

Do I need to install a certain image depending on which sim my dreambox is?

Dont want to wreck it already, lol

Just use any enigma 1 image, but don't go above 4.2 on Gemini unless it's clone safe, no need to worry about sims on 500
