no m8 same loader

Thanks mate, the thing is it does nothing for me and when i go into the properties it does not have vista as a recognized format but other win.dows xp etc. I am using a BF 816 usb to 2 port DB9 serial which apparently replaces the 232 cable, installed the driver, but it keeps coming up flash failed as tho its not even going to the SV2. Then again when i dont plug it in to the SV2 the same msg comes up.... Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks again

it sounds like a cable problem m8 or usb driver.

check this thread m8 the starview requires the same as e/vox
