    help installing starview hd combo +

    Hi, I really need help. I have brought a starview hd combo + box and I cant get any channels. The person I brought this from talked me throught the basics but i dosnt pick up any channels. The signal strength is greyed out but changes every few mins from 96% to 46% and back again. The Q signal is 0% and the other % above is always 0% I have been told that the box may need to be reset but not sure how to do the the factory settings have been reset but this doesnt change anything. The cable is Virgin but even if I couldnt get the scrambled channels I should still be able to get fta channels but I cant. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED REALLY PULLING MY HAIR OUT HERE.

        Try connecting the box directly, no splitters. if that doesn't work try reflashing and resetting
