Hi there,
I posted a lil while ago asking about flashing my newly arrived dreambox 500c via the ethernet, as my null model went walkabout. I heard this could be done using Dreambox Flash Wizard 6.3 so gave it a shot, setting up manual IPs to communicate.
It seemingly started without problems, then it reached the 2nd last stage "Writing And Verifying Cranfs Memory Partition"
It counted on that up to 93%...and froze at 93% but counting numbers up the side. I left it on, those numbers reached as far as 6000, an hour later and no further forward so knew something was up so had to close it. no idea why it crashed.
Anyway, now I'm not getting anything from the box by way of the old default image....when I turn it on the light comes on green on the box but nothing comes on the screen whatsoever
Is this box likely fried? Or could dreamup using a null modem cable if I rush out to buy one, do the job and restore it?
sick as a chip now
please help,
Tuck
