Many thanks for your reply.
In the meantime I have bought a millennium progammer and with a gold card managed to get up and running.Soooo easy!!
I tried to log on to your links but kept getting errors.
Another query for you - I have a TLC D2mac decoder which I have tried to program cards for but with no luck.I also have a Philips which I have programmed with the millenium, does the TLC use different software?
Thanks again 2old
