Hey, My Zinwell ZMX 7500 Freeview set-top box has more or less failed. All that shows on the Zinwell is a red light and a green light. Unplugging the device doesn't help. It doesn't respond to the remote. Missed Rove tonight 'cause of this. All ideas appreciated.

How old is it? Have you considered taking it back to the store you purchased it from?

Left it unplugged overnight and through most of the day. Now it works. Go figure. Thanks for the reads.
