    What type of hard disk did you put in? Wouldn't be a Western Digital "Green Power" drive by any chance?

    If it is then there's your problem as the recent models do not fully reset unless power is cycled, hence being stuck on the "Welcome, Powering Up" screen which is actually contained in the onboard PROM and not read from the hard disk.

    If you also select to do a reboot from the menus and the TiVo gives the same as you have experienced then this will be conclusive.

    It can be rectified. If it is a Western Digital then the hard disk needs a parameter change as per our Wiki entry here http://www.oztivo.net/twiki/bin/view...VoHDWorkaround
