Hi Bruce
When the TiVo is starting up with 11.3b8 software you will see either a message in white saying "Loading Ticketmaster" or a red message saying "Not Loading Ticketmaster". I bet you are seeing the red one given your description. You do not see this message on the last software release which happened if a TiVo was connected to the TiVo servence between October 25 and November 15 as 11.3b10 as Ticketmaster is no longer required.
The simple fix that seems to work every time is to "clear thumb ratings" and reboot, however given you have done a "clear and delete everything" there is absolutely no value in keeping 11.3b8 and I would recommend reloading the hard disk with a fresh copy of 11.3b10. If you need the software send me an email.
