Try using a program like Optiflasher to see if any bad sectors need repair.

there was there problem a defect tuner, has anyone already the same fault?

[chic.]

did it work b4 ? have you checked the tuner is in properly? have you tried leaving it off for 30secs b4 switching it back on some boxes wont boot straight away after flashing?

ps i dont think the tuner should stop the box booting up

i removed now the tuner, and box is booting till the end.

Think I would try and flash again but with null modem cable and change the power supply. Andy

You can buy a new tuner for less than 30 quid off Ebay is your problem sorted?

i checked powersupply it is 12,23 V is this ok?

Get the M801a tuner.
Not sure about the power supply they sell them on ebay for about 7 quid so compare.
