Eurovox ex5000pvr Help Please.

[dezzmondo]

I got the eurovox the other day. Its a real bluebox, acording to the guides. After having problems with a USB-rs232 apater, I managed to get my hands on a PC with a com port.

The cable seems fine as the software was detected, It said sending, and the box said "dnld".

But when it gets to the writing part, it says dowload is failed... on 90 seconds.

Now the box doesnt display any numbers, the lines just spin around, like there is no flash on. The bin file i got said it was clone safe. But mine is not a clone, so is this the wrong file (even tho it doesnt say wrong firmware detected)?

Anybody any ideas please before i start banging my head against the wall!

Did you wait for a while after the d/loading failed message appeared
because it usually changes to d/load successful after a bit try flashing it again

[dezzmondo]

Any ideas why?

[dezzmondo]

now im confused. Its a ex5000pvr in a red and black box. When i follow the guides it says its a real blue box. Im using the blue bin, not the max file. I sometimes do that on post, coz i dont always get another response otherwise.
