Hi, sorry for posting this as the answer is probably already in the forum. But it has become so large that after 2 hours of searching I still cant find the answer.

My DragonWorth Solo2 wont accept the old clonesafe images anymore after I was messing around with it replacing the drivers with ones that i took from my Meoboot setup. I did that because the meoboot setup had the drivers for my wifi dongle and usb dvb-t stick. I wanted to have only Vix without meoboot and that caused the problem. I can now only install newer images, like all the lonrison v4 images. But I haven't connected the sat cables yet, because I think it will brick it.

Does anyone know how to get the receiver to accept the old images again without stopping at the "HW ERROR" or "STARTING" ? Does it need some special downgrade?

I thought maybe this special tool for DragonWorth VU+ would help, but I cannot find a working link to download it.

Maybe @dirkjan73 still has it? Or @AJT

Also I think I remember @AJT having posted a special image that would downgrade the box, to get the old images again, but I cant find it.

I have already tried @dirkjan73 methood of flashing VTI 7.0.0. that image does boot up, but does not able the receiver to run the old images again. And as before I did not connect the sat cables, so the box is not bricked.

Hope you guys can help, before I make it even worse :)

I found the special tool for the DW solo2, that seems to rewrite the security chip and after running it the solo2 is back to normal, installing the good old images. @paddymitch link was still working for the program, although I was not able to download it earlier. On this thread:

I uploaded the file to digitalworldz here:
