Outside I Split The Cable As So I Could Receive Channels Through Another Box Upstairs-this Being A Samsung V Box Virgin Media Box- Nothings Happens But Says Loading (but Never Does) And Stays On Those Stupid Load Up Numbers : Ld:20 Or Ld:30... The Thing Is, I Bought The Virgin Media Box Off Ebay, It Has A Smart Card In It? What Do You Reckon ? Is It The Card Needs Reprogramming Or????

Please Help Me- Desperate Blonde Moment (or Having Quite A Few@ Mo)
