After spending hours trying to programm card,the problem is definitely the RS232 connection to your computer.
1. you need to buy a USB to rs232 with FTDI chipset (cost £9.99 from usbnow.co.uk). You have to remove the securing nuts so that the RS232 fits onto the end of the cas3. This lead comes with its own loading disc.
2. Connect up cas3 click on 3.57 mode and then hide it.
3. open up 3.8 loader and file with card inserted.
4. press connect and the ATR will be recongnized.
5. press update ,the file will load but will say 'error' when loaded ignore this as the file has loaded.
Remove card!
All the providers are now working except for Cartoon Network/Tcm France for some reason although it has been FTA for 3 days.
Hope this helps you out

Thanks for the post Banstead.

I have been trying in vain for two months to programme this card with Cas 3 +, original phoenix programmer et al.

I have a Travelmate 250 laptop with usb v1 outs running windows XP service pack 2.

Before I buy this adaptor will it definitely work with my set up?

Thanks
