Re: confused

If you have a Viewsat Ultra Lite the USB in in the back of the reciever. If just VS Platium Lite then u need a null modem cable to load the file

Re: confused

Do you have the right loader and did you unzip the file? Make sure your com port is correct. With my VS plat I am using com port 1.

Re: confused

Yes loader 2 will work. There is also a later one but loader2 works good. Ok. so you downloaded the pgm. file and unzipped it and opened the loader, retrived the pgm file and loaded it. You are waiting for the loader to start the program and then you turn on from back switch. After the loader finishes and program is installed then you set up your dish and scan. Is this what you are doing?

Re: confused

When you try to load does it show the box that show how much of the file is loaded. When you open the loaded how far do you get before the error message?

Re: confused

Hopefully with the winrar you'll be able to get past the error message. I'll check your status later.
