    Flash the latest cfe on just like you do an image via usb
    1. Unzip the duo_cfe_3_0_usb.zip to USB stick.(There should be /vuplus/duo/cfe_cfe_auto.bin) just put the vuplus folder onto usb stick
    2. Insert USB stick into the USB port of duo and power on the box.
    3. It takes just a few secs to update.
    4. If Duo displays the message "Finished..reboot", remove the USB stick and restart box.

    if it still don't boot flash the second image down on just like above

    Looks like something has happened NAO, and "starting " with a red light usually states that the capacitor or resistor has went down m8

    Just a thought Nao...take out any usb stick and hard drive you have on the box, and power it up and see if it helps
