Default Strange but true!!

Unplugged and moved V+ box Tuesday to do a bit of decorating. (I know - a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do!)
When i reconnected, my menu had gone - i quickly found the problem - i had connected my scart to the wrong port! Tut Tut!

Anyways, when i turned on box it had a little update.
Now everything still works (all channels, menu etc) - However when i change channels - i keep getting annoying "Wrong smartcard blah blah blah" message. I can remove this each time with the OK button and still watch all channels.
Just really annoying!
Anyone got any ideas/suggestions??

if it says wrong card then you should not as a rule get certain channels however if you say that the card works then there should be no problem or if you are not subbed may have gone 3.7?

It may have been knocked slightly where it was placed and the card reader could have come loose. It sounds unlikely I know, but it's just a suggestion .

Two more quickies

I have tried to look at my Rom11 but it failed to open backdoor. It then said it had reverted back to original backdoor key??????
Now i am guessing i have to unloop card again to gain access.Anyone got a recent script(Winexplorer)

Also Tried atmega with new toxic(Sr20) with redneck flash and alternative chaos flash - haven't any success as yet.
Anyone got a working flash?

Have tried all files from downloads area - no success.
Please pm me if you have a guaranteed working file.
