Changed bulging capacitor..now stuck on loading. 49 (please wait) using latest Vix.

Title says it all. I may need updated bootloader but I have not got a clue what that is or how to do it !!!
It has not been the best of boxes and I certainly would not buy another but its here and the Mrs uses it for her many recordings !!

My Vu duo knocks spots off it. Even though it must be running Vix 3.0 :eek::eek:

Any help appreciated (before it gets skipped........ but ssssh don't tell the wife)

Regards.

Flashing the bootloader is the same as flashing the image usually, but is very quick. If you blink you may miss it! lol

Installed new loader and switched off.
Installed new image. Still stops at loading 49.
Do you think its goosed?

Mine sometimes stops at 49 for ages but does eventually load.
It usually does this when doing a fresh usb flash.
It can be on 49 for a good 10-15 minutes before it eventually goes back to 0 and then boots to 100.
I think it's just the newer images and getting to the limit of what the hd2 is capable of having flashed.
But don't quote me on that because I'm not 100% sure.

On a side note my 2 eco+ receivers do the exact same thing with the last 3.2 image available but again eventually load and then are fine
