Do you know what image and build number is on it?

[Hannaman]

hi yes its vix 3.0 600

[judge]

Did you have you any plugins installed & are you restoring back-ups?
Build 600 should be fine on all TM2T's.
Maybe grab a fresh download from http://openvix.co.uk and try a fresh flash.

[Hannaman]

That's it I havnt put anything on it an because its stuck on starting it won't recognise the USB

[Hannaman]

Is there a way to do a hard reset or a new flash without USB?

[judge]

If it's stuck on starting & not recognising the USB stick on a reboot (afer back rocker power switch)
It suggests the USB stick either isn't formatted correctly or doesn't have the correct extracted file format.

It's fat32 I put 4d image on today an didn't like it so went back to vix an after I scanned sats I rebooted and it just stuck saying starting for ages so I tried reflashing but doesn't pick up USB. I'm starting to think the box is a goner!

The 4D images are packed with other stuff in the update folder. Format it or delete it. Have you tried the rear USB slot?

If that fails, you can try booting into non enigma mode by repeatedly pressing MENU during bootup. If that works reboot and install image and after reboot keep pressing EXIT.

[Hannaman]

Nothing works just says starting on display I had it off overnight and still would not boot!

One last thing before you contact the retailer, restart it and leave the USB drive with image on it.
