My openbox S10 will not turn on. I believe the firmware is corrupt. Does anyone know how to load new firmware without it turning on? I have heard you can do it through the serial port but have never tried.

Thanx guys. I tried to load my channel file then it wouldn't turn back on. I just need to figure out which of my serial cables is a Null cable and then try this.

The null cable will be the one that works so you could try the process of elimination. Or you could use an ohm meter and check the cable pins. Google DB9 or RS232 pinout for a diagram.

Most of the old FTA boxes usually were shipped with the Null cables in it if purchased brand new. The only one I recall that used a straight cable and not null was the Coolsats. So if you ever purchased before or someone close to you did it should have a null cable with it.
