Hi I really need some help. I have an Echostar AD3000 IP with Viaccess embedded. From the Echostar website I downloaded the software loader. exe file in order to download the updates on the site. The HELP file on the loader.exe suggested I upload the receivers customers data onto my PC as the user data gets overwritten and it is impossible to reset to factory settings if everything goes pear shaped on the download.

I managed to do the upload successfully to my PC. I then tried to download the updates but for each download I kept getting the message WRONG HEADER and it didnt download the updates.

I have now tried to download the info I took off the receiver back from my PC to receiver and keep getting the message WRONG HEADER.

Can someone please tell me what has gone wrong and how I can resolve this situation.

Muchissima gracias

Just a guess, but if you have an old boot version (300 or less) you will need to upload the later bootstrap file to your receiver before you can transfer new data. It's available from the Echostar site.

Yes that crossed my mind too. I suppose it could have had a some kind of boot corruption in a later version?
