      You say you flashed v3? Have you fitted the new security board?

        Check all the connections inside are pushed fully home. Also if you have a hdd fitted, disconnect it and try again.

            Probably another faulty psu as bfp says why would you try to flash v2 with v3 update? As box wasn't working box probably didn't flash anyway.

                    look for a thread about the red light saw one in the solo and duo sections basicly you might be able too fix it with the jtag style fix with involves buying a pcb and reflashing your your unit

                    edit

                    heck it was on the front page in section

                        You need to try and flash the v2 firmware onto the box using the dongle and serial lead.

                            is that a serial cable or null modem cable as both differ?
                            if correct cable keep trying ?

                              Its the cable i got with the box and the module. I flashed thr firmware using vu uti and now i get starting on the display at front thats it. I have tried doing the secret update using the module provided but it isnt working. i think i may have killed the security chip thats why when i try to flash bootloader update it doesnt respond
