[QUOTE="Hixxy1, post: 846348, member: 389960"] Exactly as Tivu states. The first F5 I bought came with a defective PSU. After the first 15 minutes it decided to die, assuming the adapter sent a spike/surge to the recveiver. The thing wouldn't come on and the front display was totally blank. The seller explained that one way to determine if it's recoverable is to plug an ethernet cable from a router into it. If the rj45 socket lights flicker or just light up then it's still got life in it and requires the serial flash. The F3/M3/F5 eeprom tool is compatible with all 3 receivers. It took me a few tries but be patient. It also worked first time on win 7 for me (crappy spare pc). [/QUOTE]
