    Did you follow Willo's advice in post 4 and download the recovery zip. Extract it and copy the 2 files into the folder of the image you are attempting to flash as this was the resolution to someone on another forum who had the same issues as you are having.

    Hello softlad

    when I received my sf4008 for the first time (flashed with openatv, as vix was not out) . I had the exact same issue as you. I tried 5 usb stick and non of them would take. I went out and bought a new usb stick (sandisk 3.0 16gb) used the documents attached and flashed successfully with openatv.

    I looked into this after, to see why the 5 various usb sticks didn't work. I found that the laptop I was using had some setting in device manager that was corrupting the sticks, as they would not even store documents on them. if you google this there is info out there to correct this issue. if you have access to another pc try that with the new usb or look on google. its defo from the device manager on your pc.
