Default Virgin HD and Chipped box

Hi Guys,

I currently have a chipped Virgin Box and am wanting to get a Virgin HD box from Virgin to watch the World Cup in HD. If I get the Virgin HD box from Virgin will that effect the signal to my chipped box and would it stop working.

Any help would be great.

Modifications of there set top box is highly illegal and not advised to do so.

if you want the channels... inc HD then get your self a Starview HD combo.

kind regards
