Hi thanks for the response anway I did following instructions below and still it does not work keeps on getting that annoying error 0x80030038 even after reboot. I would appear that this HD PVR never downloaded any software since I got it, because the loader version is still on 3/2 and for DSTV on Demand the loader version must be 8/2 Phoned Multichoice again this morning they say I must bring it in and luckily it's still under warranty.
