you say your using a usb to com port.
thats probably your problem.... use a rs232 cable and connect it to the com port on your pc then to the com port on your eurovox...if you still have a problem it could be something wrong with your configeration on your pc.. try flashing your box on another pc if thats the problem

Hi gj125
Thanks for the suggestion, however I have tried this by using a serial to rs 232 but my pc won't recognise the EuroV. I have also tried to flash from a laptop as well and also had the same problem.

More than likely you are using the wrong null modem cable, (you probably have a straight through cable), you need a cross over cable:

You will need a null modem cable DB9F to DB9F your's may look similar but it might not be the correct one.

If your pc does not have a serial port you will need a USB to serial port adapter to use in conjunction with the null modem cable.

These two cable links are only for reference as they can be purchased alot cheaper on fleabay.

I think this is your problem, I did the same mistake and used a normal serial cable. You need a null modem cable, the cross-over cable. I got one for 50p on ebay.
