Hi

 

I have 2 TiVo HD 3's that were modded locally (and had new HDD drives put in each) which according to she who must be obeyed, have been rebooting constantly for the past 2 months or so. According to her they reboot approximately every 2 days or so. Any have knowledge on this or is this death for them finally? I hear possibly power supply??.  Would truly appreciate saving them as my wife is ill and home constantly using them. Thanks

FIXED:

 

Finally got these running again after many months of reading. Appears there was a split second brownout (too short for my UPS's to pickup which corrupted the boot. After previous discussions with SPONG I downloaded the WinFS and used the functions inbuilt to copy from the second boot record. ALL IS WELL again! thanks all. Sorry for the late reply, my wife is seriously ill so her health and well being come first.

 

Thanks all for your help.
