Tried all that and says code file size error please help

[Evastar]

at what point exactly does it say that, and what is the name of the file and the file extension please eg .txt .rar etc?

do you have the correct bin file dated 03.01.2011?

and the loader dated 30th november 2008?

server is starting again,sports 1 2 3 and nickleodeon reported working

if your box was working before it went off maybe just needs a reboot of box modem and router [ off for 30 secs then on ]

[mandyzcutz]

loader is dated 30/11/08
bin file is 05/09/10
lets me click download then chose file in code send then when i press start comes up with code file size error

Did you extract the file after downloading?

Where abouts are you? If your close to me I'll come and sort you out and get ya box working.

[cactikid]

what pc do you have hopefully its a xp and you have a serial port/rs232 port and you got a null modem cable?

all new boxes come with fta firmware and will need flashing,it says its the kryptview 780 yes.

The flashing method here is outdated. Leave the box power off until you have hit the start button then power on.

Forget all the pressing of the coloured buttons. Powering on after pressing start does the trick.
