Hi,been having exactly the same problem as you today and got to the stage where box was going to be thrown out the window!!!
Tried one final thing that worked so hope this helps you also.I used the pvr800 tool as has been talked about already but I changed the bit rate settings from 115200 down to 57600 in the drop down menu and it re-flashed on first try!!!
Hope this works for you also.Comment

I'm sure your doing it as has been explained but just in case here'e how I got it working:
Connect box via Null Modem Cable(box switched off)
Run pvr800 tool
Change bit rate to 57000
Browse for new image,I used the latest european firmware
When all that was done I just clicked on next,switched box on as I did that and hey presto it ran through the burn process.
The only other thing that I remember doing was I checked my port settings using control panel/system/hardware.I did notice that parity on pvr800 box was set on "Even" yet on my port(port 1 in my case) it was set to "None" so I also changed the parity setting on PVR tool to None also(no idea is this makes any difference as I'm by no means a techie!).Comment

Thanks for taking the time to explain.......tried every which way since march..no go for me...no matter what loader/firmware combination i use or bit rate.Comment
