    you will need to flash the original firmware using dream-up and then you will be able top flash your required modify image. bothe the original firmware are available at dream multimedia in download section. its pretty easy to get it going. any more trouble let me know. by the way you will also need flash wizard pro 6.3 as well.

    I have used DreamUp to flash the original 1.09 (and then tried the original 1.08) and neither made any difference.

    Yes.

    I'm getting the kind dark grey/black slow flashing screen that I first saw when the latest revision of the boxes came out and you tried to flash a firmware with older drivers.

    As I said above, yes the green light is coming on when I plug it in.

    And it flashes when I use the remote, so it is partially alive.
