Hi all, just picked up a dreambox 7000s, and so far I have not been able to make it do anything, The box starts up, the world spins round for a bit and then it stops, what comes up is all serices tv, none of the buttons work on the front panel at this time and I can,t get out of this,
Anyone have any ideas, thanks, michael

It sounds possibly that the box has not yet been set up. Assuming that the scart lead is all connected correctly then you should get something on the tv.

As a start I suggest you do a flash erase. That will clear any settings that have been installed.

Press and hold all three buttons on the front of the box until the box reboots.
As it reboots, hold the top button until you see the message on the LCD 'erasing flash'

Wait for the box to fully reboot and you will get a picture on the tv asking for certain info.
