Old Blue Sky Viewing card

Wolves8 · 2009-10-21 13:36:51

I'm sure this question has been asked many times, but when i replaced the old blue viwing card with the white one sent by Sky, i tried to put the old card into a box i use for FTA channels, but when i put the card in i get the message ' this card is not correct for this set top box '. is there any way around this ?

reason being as the card (old blue one) has been paired to the box it was originally in...that comes up on the premium channels (movies/sports). There is no way around that on a sky box.
