Fortec Star DVB-786NA

Archived from groups: alt.video.satellite.mpeg-dvb (More info?)

I have a problem upgrading the firmware on my Fortec Star DVB-786NA. I'm
using the files from the Fortec Star website and following the instructions
posted there.

I first tried the Uploader 4 software and ran into a problem following the
directions: there was no "Compressed Application" transfer mode option.
So, I chose "All" and proceeded. Now, my receiver display is dead and the
TV output is simply a pure blue screen.
Upon reading many different posts looking for a solution, I obtained the
Uploader 3 from http://www.mondosat.net/fortec_star.htm. I downloaded the
Boot Loader at the top and transferred it, and then transferred the img file
for the compressed application. Both transfers succeeded, however, my
receiver is still dead. I think the Boot Loader I downloaded is not the one
for the DVB-786NA, however, I cannot seem to find the correct Boot Loader
file anywhere. Does anyone know where I can get it?

Right now, in the "Monitor" tab of the Uploader software, I just get "BABO"
and "System Rebooting" over and over again.
