[QUOTE="B16MCC, post: 521736, member: 197891"] Thanks for the tips guys. I'm up and running. Ok so here's what I've done so far. When trying to flash using DreamUp I met several problems. Firstly, I could not setup network addresses in Dreamup, they were greyed out. Secondly , when trying to flash using serial null modem only the process stops at 'Calculating Checksum' I have no idea at this time whats causes either of these problems. Check out [URL="http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellite/dreambox800/126912-flash-your-dm800-easy-way.html"]this[/URL] seperate post I made on flashing the DM800 via the network. So, image flashed and working great. Reboot the box and run through the setup wizard. There's a good trick the box does to help you get the output to your TV setup correctly. It swaps from DVI to Scart to Component , every 5 seconds until you select one by pressing ok. This way you should see an output evetually depending how you connected it to your TV. I used the included DVI- HDMI cable and it works fine on my Sony Bravia. Next thing I did was to connect it to my router, enable DHCP in the DM800 and fire up the blue panel. The blue panel using Gemini server shows everything the same as the DM7025. So first things first, I installed CCcam 2.09 and started it. Worked just fine first go. I've set the tuner configuration to simple, motor. I've entered my lat and long using google earth to find it. Although I already had this in my DM7025 so I know my motor and mount is bang on. I'm currently scanning 28e because thats where the motor was when I disconnected it from my DM7025. After scanning 28e I had a play around with a few channels. I've setup my CCcam to access the card share on my DM7025. Bingo Sly One HD straight on ! HEHE, Brilliant ! Its a nice picture at 720p. OK just swung round to 19E no problem , it ran the motor and found the sat great. Scanning now. [/QUOTE]
