Basic Info

I am new to all of this, and as my card has recently stopped working I have been looking around for some info. The more I read the more i do not understand. Is there anyone out there that can explain the basics (or point me to a faq section), eg how do I identify the type of card I have, what is the diff types of cards for ie silve gold fun cards etc, what type of programmer do i need for updating my card and any other info you think may be useful. <br />I have a nokia box and my card is red with two chips mounted on it. It stopped working on Thursday and even after i put in the feb codes it comes on for a few seconds then a black screen appears for 20 mins or so and the it comes back on again for a few seconds and so on.

Thanks in advance.
 
Hi Madjock from Yorkshire??<br />You got a pcb card there not a wafer but works just the same. It sounds as if your mk01 and ppua is invalid or you are running an out of date RU hex on it.

You could try here for further info<br /><a href="http://odin.prohosting.com/heroes1/" target="_blank">http://odin.prohosting.com/heroes1/</a>

PS: the downloadds section has now opened again. Find it at the bottom of the main page. There youu will find help files, faq's etc.

Thanks speccy

If i were to buy a programmer, which one would I need for my card and also could a complete novice like myself programme the card without too much trouble. would it be better to buy another card and start from scratch

Many thanks m8
 
Get yourself an elvis and some gold cards then there are plenty of tutorials around on how to use it or just ask us when you get it
 
why would he want SOME goldcards, one should be enough, unless he is a trader, and we don't allow trading on this forum.
 
madjock, visit <a href="http://wafercards-i-am.com/" target="_blank">http://wafercards-i-am.com/</a> and mention 'Digital World' to get 5% discount.

Genuine and honest guy, i've used him in the past.
 
I cant fault the recommended elvis from what I have read about it (although I have never used one myself). If you are on a low budget then you could get an FX programmer from <a href="http://www.maxking.com." target="_blank">www.maxking.com.</a> They also sell goldies at £5 each plus next day delivery if you order over the net using credit card.
 
Thanks for all your help. I have bought an Elvis which should be with me on Wednesday. You may well be hearing from me again when, sorry, if I get stuck programming.

Thanks again not so madjock

Madjock,<br />I bought an elvis programmer, and i managed to use it ok first go, and even my mother used it first go with the destructions at hand, and she's a technophobe...still has trouble with the microwave!!!!
