Hi all,
I am writing first time having problem with using Dreambox 7000s. I plugged it in and the box powers OK, display says dreambox version 1.05 and then volume level stays on the display, pushed the buttons on the front panel and they don't respond. I am using step up power converter with 50w power max. And eventually cannot connect to PC using null cable with Dream up program.
The box is German model with scarts, and I am US user.
Could you help me to fix the problem, please?
Thanks,
tennisod

Try reading the idiot guide here. I think you'll be needing to install and run the Dreamup serial flashing utility, for which you'll need a null modem lead.

That's some very old firmware you have installed there ;)

Yes should be ok with a null lead. Try loading the new gemeni 2.50 in it. lets know how you get on.
