is my box dead
 

Today got up went to turn on my box ( left on standby ) and all I get are random flashing numbers on the boxes display, I have my internet via SACM, and the tv with family pack.

It is a Samsung STB, is this cooked? I have turned off at mains and removed all leads, and reinserted 3minutes later to no avail.

Sounds like the STB is downloading from NTL, leave it to finish.

OH right errmm :blush: :dunce:

Re: is my box dead
 

is it still flashing, or has it returned to normal?

Re: is my box dead
 

Still flashing and I have had it on for ages now.

The area where the channel displays is showing random flickering of numbers in weird patterns.?

Anyone help please I am missing my Voyager :(

Re: is my box dead
 

It's knackered. Download should only take 10-15 mins max. Report it to faults in the morning.

AWwww mann that sucks.

Try powering it on with the down button on the front panel held in. If/when the display says "Ld:14", let go. (Should take around 5 seconds). Might just get it working temporarily until you can get someone out to it.

Re: is my box dead
 

When I turn it on the channel thing flashes madly no picture, and the on button LED flashes all the time. Nothing else.

sounds knackered mate

Re: is my box dead
