We need more information, maybe I or some in the forum might be able to help you if we have more information on what has fully happened to your Vu+Duo box to make it only show a red light. :confused:

my duo, using the duo power switch often starts in that "locked" mode (red led)
doesn't matter how long i wait from off to on state
for that i suggested that test

is not a problem, i'm using a multiple sockets plug with a switch that i use as well for the usb hub power supply
(in true with a little modification for exclude problems with fast blackouts and since that day all fine and perfect)

i have tried to upgrade the bootloader but on the vu-duo there is still a red light nothing more

For the moment , I would recommend to go for BH 1.6.5 (USB)

-shut down from the back of STB then insert USB @ front.
- Then turn on STB (power on from the back)
- wait , read instruction on the front display.
-Turn off and on the STB to all rebooting ( No USB @ front or the back)

,,,and see what would happen!

Remember to remove all USB and INTERNET connection from the back!

You are sure that it is COM1?
Try COM2 also, you should see something on Hyperterminal/putty when you put power on in the Vu.
