Sounds like it has corrupted when Vermin knocked off all boxes...... Have you tried the reset button on the PCB??
TBH sounds like it needs J-Tagging

best to try sending the f/w again this time send it with the box off at the plug and when its sending turn back on at the plug .. had that a few times and then clear the bad image

Glad to be of help.... J-tagging is needed when a box stops working - re-flashing firmware should work but on some occasions the chipset can be corrupt, even a surge of power could cause it. J-tagging is a way of reflashing the chip..
I don't want to go into too much detail as still unsure what is allowed since this section has reopened but i'm sure if you google it or search on you tube there are people who show how it is done

thanks again marty for your pointers on where to find out about jtagging it was very helpful
