Just reflash a image.

There were sim1 sim that did not go to a 72 ssl 69 and 70 I think they were, maybe that's the issue.

Just reflash with dreamUP.

Toysoft always pushes that image because he want to charge you for support forget the cost but he charges a yearly fee for what he call direct support.

Support is free all over the net.

right tryed another image,no boot,went back to this image and it wont boot,someone reckoned it could be a faulty power button so i bought another front panel and it still wont boot,,,so i connected to putty and serial mode,wasnt sure what to do so i chose flash sector recovery and it seems to boot ok from whats is says on panel.choose language etc etc,so i do with remote,then hook back up to the tv and it wont boot,but will boot every time i choose flash sector recovery in dreambox advanced setup utility :(

I had a similar problem with one of the boxes.

You have 2 alternatives;
- Load an old patched image with bootloader 69 (it worked for me after several attempts using network and com ports.
- Or change the SIM card to more recent one like SIM2 or Ferrari.

the old clone sim 1 boxes dont work with new sim cards due to hardware issues,the first clones had sim 1's from #69 upto #72 and at the time you could only swap to a new ferrari sim that had just came out,they would not work with a sim 2.01.

so what he needs to do is find these patched sim 1 bootloaders #69 - #72 and images with the same bootloaders,flash the image first then straight after flash the bootlader,and just keep trying,i recently tried one for a friend for at least a week with no success,in the end i told him to throw it in the bin.

Thanks Brummie for reminding me,
:)

Here are some patched images for sim1 to try:

PHP:
http://www.openblackhole.com/

PHP:
http://rapidshare.com/files/416871451/Gemini-5.1-OE1.6-dm800-SSL70_TSv2.rar

PHP:
http://rapidshare.com/files/421444759/PeterPan-Neverland.v2.0-DM800HD-PVR_SIM1-2_BL70_OCP.nfi

PHP:
http://rapidshare.com/files/421415192/newnigma2-release-dm800-v3.0.2_SIM1-2_BL70_OCP_.nfi

I am not sure if the links are working.
If not try google by searching for "patched images by Ramimaher or Mfaraj"

I hope that I am not breaking any forum rules.
