Take out any card. Switch the Box off at the mains. Switch back on again, and see if that makes them available. all the 'Fives' are on :
Ch's 105, 174,175,176,177,236

or if that doesn't work try a 'forced software update'.

Turn TV on. Turn skybox off at mains. Whilst holding down the back-up button ON THE SKYBOX turn the digibox back on at the mains, continue holding down the back-up button until 4 coloured lights come on on the front of the digibox. let go of back up button. (there should also be a notice on the tv saying that the software is being updated) etc. Leave alone until the box switches to standby then switch on as normal and see what is what.
