    Is it flashed? Maybe you are missing the logo file also, more info needed.

    Which version? Is there any LEDS on the front display? It must have power to be able to carry out the flash. Did you carry out a scan?

    If its a clone and you used the latest firmware you may be in trouble.

    Look down through the grills on top of the box do you see a silver square covering the CPU?

    Also plug it in and look at the SPDIF connection on the back of the box you should see that LED light up.

    Sorry about that I was checking a few things. All I can offer advise on is to send it back as faulty under warranty. Probably not what you wanted to hear.
