      As long as you have power you should be OK to re-flash the box again from Scratch as you did before, Worst case scenario is the powercut may have damaged the nandflash where the image is stored when flashed if that has happened the box is goosed.

      But first try flashing Via USB and if that does not work then maybe try using Null modem cable and the official software

          It looks like you may have to try and flash this Via the RS232 port on the back of the box with a Null modem Lead

                            you should really use a destop pc with the RS232 port
                            with a laptop you will need a usb to RS232 convertor but ive never had much luck this way
