    Re: pace 100 gone down

    Manchester including Swinton, Salford, Stretford, Wigan, are now on 3.7 and Ashton, Bolton, Burnley, Macclesfield, Runcorn, Stockport and Warrington set to receive new cards so will be going fully to N3 soon

    does your box boot to the fta channel?
    does you get a card error switching from BBC1 to ITV?
    has your box updated to cr 3.7?
    what error if any do you get on a premium channel like 511?
    have you tried the shanti fix for the fun card?

    Re: pace 100 gone down

    your first thing to find out is does it boot to a channel, if not what error do you get,

    if it does boot use the remote and go to the home page and then settings, then Technical stuff, press red to scroll down till you find "Software Version", the first two digits will be your code revision, hopefully 3_7

    assuming it has booted got to 103 to view ITV then go to 511 to view SLY sports 1 (do you get a blank screen but can see the program guide or do you get an error like "not subscribed"

    how long, who knows?, there is a list on here of all areas, have a look

    Re: pace 100 gone down

    yes it does make sense, for some reason the older 1000 boxes either update to 3.7 or just hang on 3.6 , (the atmels are all the same size on these boxes so did throw me, guess its just down to old 1000's even tho they can update to 3.6)

    boot to the eng menu and see that your signal is ok, (meaning your tuner is ok also, and will be handy to see later as i believe a reset will stop the signal showing here)

    now you can try a forced code download by doing the 4321 trick but to be honest it would have updated by now if it could, even with the talk back disabled

    you will also find on the listing you have sly sports 4, meaning the guide is corrupt

    so two choices left,

    one is to reflash the atmels with a working image, but to be blunt if you have to ask how to fix this you wont have the equipment to do it, plus its not the easiest thing to do

    so your only real choice is to fully reset the box BUT as the atmels are corrupt and your signal will disappear and just show a 0dB snr as if the feed isn't connected,

    so what to do?

    try 4321 if not then

    if you dont get any channels especially fta, like bbc1 or itv (remove and ignore the card at this stage), i would try and reset the box as you have nothing to lose,

    if then the box returns a bad signal in the eng menu (which will be fake if you have a signal before) throw it away Hidden Content

    please note once you reset your box you will need a serial lead and an rs232 port on your pc and a funcard and a programmer to reset the netid

    feel free to post back any questions

    Re: pace 100 gone down

    an update takes place straight away and is shown by rolling numbers on the led screen of the box, if you get a rolling listing on your tv and it keeps rolling to the same values then its not updating but in an update loop,
    some boxes just wont update to 3.7
