My System: Passion HD, Nova HD S2, 85cm Mesh Dish, Fortec Star Diseqc Motor, Diablo CAM, Sky+ HD, Selfsat H10D2, Hauppauge HD PVR | Have you tried a factory reset prior to loading the new firmware ? Be sure to save your channel list if you want to keep the same EPG listings. Also it's better to load the firmware on boot-up rather than from the menu option. To do this, power down the box using the on-off switch then plug the usb stick in. Now power the box up again and you should see 'File 1' on the front panel display. Now press 'OK' on the box (not the remote) and you should see the firmware file name appear. Press OK on the box again and it will start the read / erase / program routine. The box will display 'GOOD' when complete and will reboot automatically. The new firmware will now be loaded. | ||

Is the firmware you are trying to load intended for the Passion + ? I would have thought that original Passion HD software wouldn't be compatible (but I may be wrong). | ||

For the record it appears to be different from the Innovation as it is prefixed with 'P2' rather than 'I' (original Passion HD firmware is prefixed with 'P'). | |||

My System: Sky +, Passion+ HD, Various Mac's, too many gadgets to count. | yes I have tried both methods for updates, I think my usb ports are not working correctly. no pvr function, not able to see pictures or music etc. is there a hard reset for this box ? I may have knacked the usb loading the wrong passion software previously not realizing that there was a difference between passion & passion + software. | ||
