Download the Chatterbox toolbar onto your pc

***.thechatterbox.cc

And then download starview file The box super 7.09e and 8.00e from Files & Fixes from the chatterbox toolbar, save onto your desk top for easy access.

Connect your box to your Pc with a null modem cable, power up the box.

click on the 7.09e file and press download, once your download says complete leave it another 20 seconds to make sure it is complete

That’s your box now flashed with the latest software...

Connect your box to your TV via scart lead and power up

you will now see a menu, Go onto English and press OK, Installation OK

Make sure you’re on the correct cable provider, i.e. TW, NTL or whoever it is

go to auto scan and press OK

This takes around 20 min, and after this it will tell you how many channels are found
Now press OK then EXIT EXIT

Now don’t do anything else but this

Aim the remote at the TV and press 1 5 7 0

scroll down to Set Default Key and press OK

Scroll down to EMU and turn from OFF to ON
Now press Exit Exit Exit

Go onto sly sports 1 and let the INFO UP Date which might take a few minutes

If the box fails to update after a while then start the whole procedure again and instead of the 7.09e file, use the 8.00e and that should do the trick
