Can somebody please help me out....

Hi, I have Viewsat Ultra and i put a new bin file from totalfta, the "do not power off" message was on the screen for almost 20 minutes. I turned the receiver off from the back and when i turn it on, receiver froze. It is showing me 4 dash lines and it is not responding at all. What should i do?

Dear Lebanon
I read that forum but that does not tell how does somebody download the factory bin onto the receiver. I have been using USB flash drive to download bon files. Since my receiver is stuck i cannot use USB also

Thats why i am asking how do i download factory bin

Vikas,
First switch of the reciever, open the file and then switch on the reciever... then it should work...

Oleg,
Where heck are the file man... stop posting if the files are not there...

Vikas,

Just do everthing in this guide and you have no trouble. The "boot file" is part of the factory bin it is not a separate file....hope this helps

Ashi,

No. I don;t know what to do. Can you find out the steps needs to be done?

My problem is that i tried to put the latest bin and it said "Do Not Power Off". and it satayed there for more than 10 min. Then i turned the rreceiver from back and then turned it on. Now the receiver is dead. I can only 4 dash lines and nothing is working not even remote.

Yes, it is my post. I thought you were asking me how do i download bin file to STB.

When i try to put the new file to STB thats when something went wrong. Now the receiver shows 4 dash lines and when i try to put the factory bin, the progress bar doesn't move from 0%
