Have you checked that you loaded the correct software? Have you tried loading another version?

You have most probably sent it the wrong software.

Not tried it on the 6800HD, but with the SD models you have to reflash it via the serial port connected to a PC via a null modem cable, using the TM Loader software. Start the download with the receiver OFF, then turn it on, for a forced download.

N.BThere are two main models of the 6800: The super and the normal one. The software is different.

Yes indeed, how would you reflash via USB? since the box isn't booting up properly. You would never get to the menu page to be able to upload the software from the USB device.

Use serial as already said!:)
