Bit of advice please?

[Cronus]

I've flashed a few eurovoxes for mates and all has been fine.
Anyway someone has just dropped one off and he said it has had a new motherboard in it and the guy who did it told him it needed to be jtagged.

Is that right??

Its a ex1000-sl. I've just connected up to the power and the red light is on. When I press the power button on the remote to turn it on, the red light goes off for 2-3 seconds and then just comes back on. It doesn't seem to be powering up.

Is that normal and does this mean it needs to be jtagged? If it does then he can forget it cos I don't have anything to do a jtag with and never done it before either.

Just need a bit of clarification as this is what is needed.

Thanks if anyone can help.

is it worthwhile doing anything to this box bearing in mind it going off very very soon.
