    Done a bit of digging around - found a bit of software called broadband studio. Looks like a bit of JTAG software to reflash the mainboard. Ive seen it running on the 800se but not mine....im guessing this is a bit of generic software for reflashing Broadcom chipsets....just a thought....

    Just to add. Ive found the Broadband studio 3 software but cant find the necessary files to reflash mine - the older models ive found. Plus I cant find the build instructions for the jtag although ive seen a youtube video which briefly shows one....doesn't look too hard to build but irrelevant if I haven't got the correct bootloader files...

    If you try doing a JTAG incorrectly then you can mess the box up even further! Do you want to risk it?!

    All along I must have been reading the wrong thread as if I knew there was no vix image I probably would have bought another receiver! Heh, never mind....

    Cool - its the first receiver ive bought from them....I usually buy from another supplier (you tend to go with your last purchase) the other company has been really good but I thought id give them a try...I know I knackered it up but if they can sort it then they'll get my continued biz as ive got another 2 receivers to get...
