HELP! Hello boot loop!

[cheapcat]

I have the Hello Boot loop problem. Tried the force loading file fix by Webwizard, but didn't work. First of all, when I held on the power key and boot the box, it would not freeze in the boot mode. I still went ahead and clicked start in the loader, it actually loaded file 124 successfully after a couple of tries. However, now it is in "wifi... Hello Boot" loop. So it didn't fix the problem. My next try is replacing the power switch in the back. But before I do that, is there anything else I can try software-wise?

When changing the power switch, do I need to change the power cord as well? I don't know anything about hardware. So any advice is much appreciated. Thanks!

Took the power cord and switch to a local electronic store to find replacement, but was told that mine is working just fine, nothing wrong with it. The guy used a volt meter to check both the switch alone and the power plug with the switch plugged in. So I guess I don't need to spend the money on replacements. Now, does that mean I will need to dish out $200 to buy a new receiver? Anyone has other suggestions on how to fix my Limesat? HELP please!!!!

&quot; I'd remove pwr from outlet, remove sat cable, remove ethernet cable, remove cover, <br />
and discharge static electricity on hands by touching the outer box and then remove <br />

I tried to put the power cord and the switch back after removing the wifi board. The box would not turn on AT ALL. Then I plug the wifi power cord back onto the motherboard, the box turned on, but still in the hello boot loop. How do I remove the wifi board without compromising the power? Why would the power cord on the wifi board affect the power to the whole box?

Note use 130 bin is for Version 1 receiver
use 131 bin is for Version 2 receiverI was having the "hello-boot" problems also. Did a little securing with the rear switch and got it working again. I used the Limesat Loader, tried 130 and everything scanned perfectly but no video or audio. The 130 bin will not work with the version 1 Limesat Air, neither will 131! Both 130 and 131 are for version 2 only!

Used USB and loaded 124 bin, didn't rescan and everything worked perfectly.
