Hold standby, insert the power cable, keep hold of standby until you see "----" on the LED display. Release standby, press the buttons to the left of Standby from bottom to top until you see 4231 on the display and press OK. The box will run some commands and it will begin to update once you see numbers rolling on the LED display .

UPDATE: The box has finished updating yet when it starts up I get the NTL logo and it takes me to the normal dashboard but it keeps saying STOP on the led display and resets everytime.

Take the card out then try booting the box. Is the Net ID correct?
