Did new firmware break my eurovox max 3?
I installed the new firmware "EUROVOX_MAX_010706.zip" everything went fine epg now worked correctly, everything was working for a whole day i put it into standby mode at the end of the night.
The next day I turned it on everthing still working till i pressed the EPG button on the remote control the picture went black on the tv and no sound. I couldn’t change channels, switch it off using the remote control or using the front controls on the box so I unplugged it from the mains and left it for a bit. When I plugged it back in to the mains it was completely dead, no standby light no time on the display nothing. I have tested the mains lead and its working fine. I opened it up hoping a fuse had blown or something but there is no fuse i took it to work to test the mains psu board and everything is working fine all voltages are normal I also tryed flashing it back to the original firmware but vortex or dabba man can't find my box.Please Does anyone suggest anything else I could try? Thanks in advance |
