Try a reflash first, images can go bad, especially if running services that fill the memory.

hi
try on pc main drive (ie c drive)
there should be a folder dboxifa_tmp delete this folder and try again to flash image

also you could try when connected to ifa dbox starts to load normally and not to ifa on lcd keep connected and turn power off then on to dbox (it may take a number of tries)

these have worked for me when ifa would not flash

hope this may help

Try ifa portable, drop firewalls etc etc.

If still the same you may have to try the long winded comport only method.

if u can ftp ok then problem over, ftp all important files (bouquets services kys cams) to pc....drop a new img into the /tmp folder and use remote to flash....just make sure img matches box 1x or 2x
