Do you have the debug screen in the LCD window when first booting up,ie loads of letters / numbers ????

Do you have any sign that there might be an image on the box when booting up ??

How many scart sockets do you have?, if 3 then it's a dbox1, also is there an ethernet port? if not, then it's a dbox 1.

If it's deffo a dbox2, follow my instructions in post 3 of this thread to flash an image with IFA. Make sure you have the right image for your box ie 1x or 2x depending on the number of flash chips in your box.

Easy Guide help needed

Don't know for sure m8, maybe the LCD is fekked or worse, it's not in debug mode ( although this can be fixed )

Try flashing following my guide m8 and let us know.

Keep tring with IFA as it doesn't always kick in first time, if it takes 20 attempts it will be worth it if your box eventually flashes..........silly question time now............I assume you have un rarred your downloaded image using winrar ??????? as this helps.......A LOT !!!!
