[QUOTE="limpwhizkid, post: 248338, member: 68258"] How do you update an alphacrypt (classic) cam .. there are only 2 ways.. 1 by satelitesignal.. using pid 00546 , which you dont have with dvb-c.. (or ask a friend with Satelite to plug in your cam for an update) 2 with a laptop with win2000 or XP with PMCIA connector. 3 no other way ;) and no .. not the CI tool included with Firetools either, it wont work! How to update to 3.19 Download [URL="http://www.alphacrypt.de/fileadmin/download/Bedienungsanleitungen/AlphaCryptUpdate3_19_Classic.zip"]http://www.alphacrypt.de/fileadmin/download/Bedienungsanleitungen/AlphaCryptUpdate3_19_Classic.zip[/URL] unpack the zip .. plugin the cam WITHOUT SMARTCARD in your laptop PMCIA slot. When the found new hardware wizard pops up Choose: INSTALL FROM LIST OR SPECIFIC LOCATION and click next IN the next screen choose DONT SEARCH option .. and point to the unpacked driver When cam is found and driver installed run the update314.exe .. Note: CAM is recognized in DEVICE MANAGER as SMART CARD READER , most people dont think of a CAM like that but it actually is a smartcardreader :D When your cam is not recognized you need to do a lot .. :( Download this file [URL="http://devel.mascom.de:8080/cms1/fileadmin/user_upload/Dateien/Bedienungsanleitungen/xp_pcmcia_patch.zip"]http://devel.mascom.de:8080/cms1/fileadmin/user_upload/Dateien/Bedienungsanleitungen/xp_pcmcia_patch.zip[/URL] unpack to a location you can remember.. copy the INF file to c:\windows\inf (and NOT the sys file to system32\drivers as stated in the german manual ) Go to devicemanager.. choose on both pmcia slots " update driver" DONT SEARCH and choose standard card bus controller (the inf you just copyed ) it will ask where the sys file is located, point it to wherever you unpacked the zip, windows will copy the sys to system32\drivers for you.. after that.. cold reboot.. when powered on with the desktop in front of your face.. insert the cam .. and point to the win2000xp folder from the update package.. now it will be recognized, and you can run the update package. if in case you still get the !!!! in front of the cam in devicemanager.. disable networkcontrollers, comports, lpt ports , there probably on the same hex adres (#0320) reboot .. and do it again .. Done.. [/QUOTE]
