Scientific Atlanta 4200dvb error code???
Hi all, I have just plugged in an old box, as mentioned above, and it says on screen not to turn off the box as it is updating. The problem is it's been doing it for about 45 minutes and the code on the box says NIT, and it occasionally runs through a load of numbers? Can anyone tell me what is going on?

take out of the box and leave it out, otherwise your job will get harder if that card got hit, connect the box with out cable and hold the buttons like i post earlier m8.Quote:Originally Posted by macka09
