    Help please Setting up a Dream800 Clone

    I have just taken delivery of a DM800 Clone as an upgrade from a DM500 clone. however when I have tried to flash an image and I have tried a few different ones, it seems that it either fails to boot or boots then I get a green screen with an error message or it boots up but then I have a black screen but the led on the box looks like it's going through the menu. either way I cannot even get to the set up wizard screen. am I missing somthing or have I got a dodgy box. when flashing an image say sim201e-75-OoZooN-CVS-full-dm800-20100109 is this a one step operation or should i be looking to add further software after the inital flash stage.

    any help would be greatly welcome.

    Thanks in advance

    If you are getting a green error screen then it means your box is crashing. Try a different image on your dm800, I use the Sim 201e bl75 Nabilo Blackhole on my clone dm800. After flashing the image I usually power take the lead out of the back count to 10 and re-insert the power lead to reboot the box.

      thanks for that Curious 123,any chance of a link of that image please also if i flash that image am i correct in thinking that i should then be able to go stright through the dish / network setup. On one inmage i used i got through to the wizard set up then after i had finished and tried scanning for chanels it froze with an error message.

      Cheers

            THE TRUTH
            The Hillsborough Independent Panel. 12/09/12

            Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
            The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.
