I am under the assumption the only way to get that error to go away would be to hook it up to pc with rs232 cable (serial cable) and use CS loader to flash to latest factory file (ie 1.16).

Use the null modem cable, and loader program to load the latest factory file, then latest file.
First you will need to download the factory flash and the new bin to your computer. I put them in my documents folder (using vists).
Next open the 7k loader, select software, select the factory flash and hit download.
The loader should now say "reset your box" which means to turn it off using the swith on the rear of the unit. Turn off in the back, wait 3 seconds and turn back on. The loader should then start the download automatically. Continue until you see "download complete" and the display on the front of the receiver finishes loading.
Do the same procedure to load the new bin.
Then set your settings again (if you have a usb drive you can save your settings and restore them with one button) including sats, time, remap locals, etc. Make sure that "auto ch/tp update" is turned to "off" (see set up for dummies for reason why).
After you have your settings done then go and do a channel search on all your sats. Very important to turn network search off when scanning your birds.
After scanning for channels go to channel 239 (wgn) and press the "epg" button on your remote. When the pop up appears then press the "blue" button on your remote and the pop up should change from 3 days to 9 days of epg. Sit back and relax as the 9 day epg population takes approximately 15 minutes.
Once populated you are good to go. If the epg pop up does not stay on the screen you did something wrong and I suggest you back to step one and reload all from the beginning.
One more note, any time you populate or repopulate the epg any programs you have set to record will be deleted from the time manager so reset your programs to record after loading the bin or repopulating your epg.
