    are you sure that a sv3 ? an sv3 is the box super

    if it is , load the latest gtrom v8.02ee loader and download the new fix into the box , factory reset , 1570 , set emu on and rescan for channels

    if its an sv2 called THE BOX , load the v4.03 loader , select the new v4.55 bin file and download into your box and factory reset after

    then its 1570 , set keys default , emu on and rescan for channels

        I thought it must have been dvb and not dv3 but you can see how easy it is to mislead others

        my advice is still the same but use the lower reply of the v4.03 loader and the new v4.55 bin file etc as I believe you have an sv2 called the box , and it seems to have the original v4.51 flash on it , so replace it with the v4.55 , factory reset and start from scratch with it

            use windows explorer and double click on the loader which is the v4.03 one from the 4.54 previous pack , then press the bin button and browse to the folder where you have the v4.55 bin file , and select it , then select the correct com port for your pc and download it into the box , wait until its fully finished and rebooted and says successful on screen , do not rush this part at all

            then factory reset , menu 1570 , set keys default and emu on , exit , rescan , finish

                        reflash it with v4.55 again and wait until its completed

                        after this , connect to tv , let it boot and then factory reset it before proceeding

                            thought it was strange when you said it wouldnt power up , thought you hadnt turned it on at the rear switch

                            anyway , glad you checked the fuse and glad its sorted
