Use IFA (Image Flash Assistant) to flash it. Make sure all firewalls and antivirus are disabled and shutdown, not just inactive. If you have a wireless network active, you will need to disable that too. You a crossover ethernet and null modem cable if you have one.
 
Iam no expert here but doesnt it mean the dbox is not in the debug mode? Sure I read it somewhere.. Maybe someone could confirm? It needs to be in the debuug mode before you can flash an image...
 
You're correct. When the box boots up, are there numbers like this on the lcd?

If not, you will need to put the box in debug mode before you can flash it.

Have a read it PT-1s Helpfile and there are a few guides in the download section that explain how to do this.

thanks for your input guys

Check what bmon version is it as there are 2 different methods to get a box into debug mode and using the wrong one can kill the box.
Also check what make chips it has.
 
sometimes mine says the same...I just give it a whack and then it reboots as normal. just happens when booting from cold. think theres a loose chip inside . hope this helps.

A nice technical method :)
