TiVO keeps crashing and rebooting

[tifotoff]

Hi, I'm seeing a lot of problems with my TiVO where it is constantly rebooting. At first I thought it was the HDD dieing, so I cloned it but nothing has changed in the reliability space.

Thoughts?

Simply cloning the had disk may be copying across bad data causing the issue to be replicated on your cloned copy.

The correct way is to load up another hard disk with a known good image. If you need one send me an email.

It may be window system issue so open advance tab and reset it
