The EEPROMs are available ... as to whether you can extract one from your dealer ... is another story.

Thanks Neil,

went a bit mad and bidded on a couple of sets on ebay and ended winning them both, an advant 32" 100hz ( with a newish replacement video) stb controller, nicam board and rf modulator all foe 250 squids, i though that was a good deal if it turns out to be ok.

and an MX 7000 with a motor stand and a newish mx7000 for 100 squid. I was going off load the MX 7000 , if the advant turns out to be ok, however with it having active speakers i might bung it in the conservatory inplace of the MX4500. presumably I can sit an ipod on the top ?

Neil, I would imagine that if the advant is a video model the stb controller will have some older firmware, I detest SKY so don't want to use a skybox. Reading old post's people seem to rave about topfield PVR's, as there plentiful on ebay i thought i'd probably get one of those. Is there anyone i can get an updated eprom off for the STB ( rather than pay for an engineer to come out)

Oh and yes ill post a pick of the screen as i'd like to try and sort it, although it will probably be next week now as im off on a course to Durham for a week.

Thanks for your help

Steve.

Hi Steve,

If you can post a picture of the problem, I can probably point you to the fault.

With the price of B&O CRT's been so low, I would just look for another one on Ebay.

The old Beovision LS5500 is playing up a little. The top a bottom frame has collasped in a bit and there are black lines jumping across the screen. Is this a timebase fault ?

Are there any adjustments or shall I just send it to T.V. heaven. obviously i'm aware of all the associated hazards with EHT ete etc but I don't mind having a delve in the back if pointed in the right direction.

regards

Steve
