Hi,

Got home today and the box is not working.

Symptoms:

1. On the number display it will blink one pixel (in between the third and forth non lit 8 on the number display.

2, Periodically it will flash the 4 eights for about 5 seconds then go back to the one pixel. When it does this you can hear the fan or hard drive start up for a second.

3. After awhile the display read "oob".

I have restarted the box many times and called shaw. they could not see it on the network and can't get a tech out until the 30th of Oct. I have a ton of shows on the pvr that i do not want to loose.

Please i need help. Is there away to reset the box manually? any help would be greatly appreciated.

It sounds like a hardware defect. Possibly your OOB tuner is shot, and it can't d/l the firmware.
