Help!! My new Nano 2 Super doesn't work!

[abu baniaz]

One last thing - can I get this box all set up how I want it with plugins as bouquets etc then do a backup and when the new box comes restore from the backup?

Yes you can.

Refer to section 8.1 of the manual.

Thanks - thought so.

Now - this combo 3t - is it worth me asking to swap for that? Or is it just paying extra for the display on front of box and the additional cable / terrestrial tuner? So I can record 2 x channels and watch a third?

Must be a crap box?

It's not a crap box, you've just been unlucky. Electronics.....

Apologies - that's what I meant - not that the box wasn't a good one!

Would you say it would be worth me trying to get the 3t Combo Sicilian?

Thats completely upto you and your budget, WoS has the best price around atm http://www.world-of-satellite.co.uk/...D-Receiver-PVR

Ok - I'll take it that it's better than the n2s in the tuner and display as all other spec seems the same.

Will consider it.

Thanks

The box seems to have corrupted my flash drive which in turn has somehow messed up my laptops ability to deal with usb sticks. It's the only logical explanation

Sorry but thats quite impossible.

Sorry but thats quite impossible.

I have no idea what happened, but guessing it's something to do with Linux / window system differences.

Both were good and known working usb drives. One had been set up for EPG and picons in my old box and was happy there. The second (small one) was simply for flashing.

All was working good until the failed flash. Putting that in to the laptop to format then started all the issues. Neither USB stick would format.

I had to format the tosh one in the nano super and then put it in to laptop where I could then format it.

The little stick is dead though so it's going in the bin.

The nano 2 super is going back and instead I'm getting a Nano 3T! Wahey. Thanks for your help everyone. I will donate to the site friday when I get paid again.

Don't bin the stick just yet. Wait till you have the new box and try it again.

It's only a freebie stick. I think it was only about 126mb or something Rather get a new one than have to go through this pain again haha

Judge - the image is still on the usb, I am guessing. But it no longer gives option to up date. As above post, I think the USB has been buggered by the box and in turn screwed with my laptops usb drivers.

As others have said, on the face of it this would seem to be impossible. However, I've had a similar experience with my own set up. I used a USB stick in the TM Nano2 Super and then it because unreadable by my Windows XP machine. Not only can I not read or reformat it, the XP machine now won't recognise any of my other USB sticks. I wouldn't necessarily blame the receiver for this though - more likely a case of Windows getting upset at something it didn't recognise being thrown at it.

In Windows

Try going to Control panel / Administrative Tools / Computer Management / Disk Management /
See if it shows up in there, if it does you may be able to fix it.

He had a faulty receiver which was replaced by his vendor.
