I want to install the latest Helios image to my box but although I have flashed the box before with a san disk cruzer slice it wont scan the usb stick it just boots as normal.I have tried an itegral and a kingston data traveller in all usb sockets with the same result.Is there any other way to flash?

Could be a USB stick in another slot on your VU+ Duo.

do you have the directory (and subs) on the stick ? Doesn't the box asks to push front power button ?

On this box you just power on with an image on an inserted stick. Its a VU+duo .Not a VU+duo 2

Use a rear USB port.

Use a MAX 8GB USB stick.

Use this HP Tool to format your USB stick FAT32 http://www.world-of-satellite.com/showthread.php?45-HP-USB-Stick-Drive-Format-Tool

If still no joy buy a genuine Kingston stick max 8GB.

so you definitely have the "vuplus" folder on the stick with the image inside the vuplus/duo folder?
I've never had much success installing when inserting the stick in the front USB for some reason, and sometimes i have to power on and off 3 or 4 times before the Duo recognizes the image.
