Are you using a usb to rs232 adapter? If you are you need to install the driver that came with it. You can also try to force load it. Have the factory file in the loader & the rs232 cable hooked up to your stb with the switch off on the back. Have your cursor on the start button & turn the switch on on the stb, as soon as you see the power light come on hit start on the loader. This could take several times & timing is everything but I have heard that this will work sometimes.
