    Almost there, i think !!

    Thanks folks.....
    Sounds like a good idea. I will get my dad to try in a bit.
    If we have any luck I'll let ya's know.
    Is it possible for a download to happen without realizing it cos it seems a little bit hit and miss tbbh.
    After this I'm doin me eurovox max v and then me super usb , kinda like running before i can walk. But hey, that's me all over.
    Thanks again people, help is much appreciated.

      Hi again folks, sorry to be a pain but i have just been thinking.
      When the box is powered up it goes straight into "On" and not stand-by.The only way to get it into stand-by is to manually switch it after it has come on.
      What are your thoughts on this.
      My dad has tried loadsa times now and i wonder can we damage a box by constantly trying to flash it?? Thanks for your input so far.

        I know you said it was driver related halfway through the thread. But from your first post you had problems loading the bin file.

        If you got it from here 4.57 and the loader are in rar format. Did you use winrar or a similar app to unpack the file first before using both?

          Hi Satsmo,
          Thanks for the reply.
          I don't think there was an issue with the files.
          Both The loader and bin file were taken from this site(i think).
          I will download them again and retry everything tomorrow when i go down to me dad's. I use winrar for extracting files. Do you think there maybe something amiss ?? If i was in me dad's place i could copy and paste the file to you, so you could have a nosey at it.
          This is turning into a saga...any more suggestions.

            Thanks to everyone who helped out!!

            Hi Folks,
            Eventually i got things to work. The prolific software had assigned itself to com8. I'm not sure how i missed it before but the penny finally dropped.
            Thanks everyone.
            Anyway the first scan only gave 25 channels and none of them worked. So i checked to see was emu on, and it was.
            Then i ran another scan...nada.
            Just as i was leaving to go home i had a look to see if the codes were right. They weren't.
            I left things with my dad for tonight and he said he' try with the proper codes and let me know.
            So i'm still waiting and will let ya's know tomorrow.
            Thanks again

                Have you got your EMU switched on?

                HI,i.e change parental code to 2004 ,press info button on remote,bringing you to a secret menu and switch EMU to on.

                  Yeah we have EMU on in the secret menu....didn't try the parental code bit.....i also didn't know that you could get to secret menu thru the info button.
                  I will try the two methods and see if anything changes and i'll let you know.
                  Thanks for your help.
