Hey All,
I got a TiVo the other day but it is constantly freezing. I've had a few glimmers of the TiVo's wonderful action, but the freezing is obviously quite annoying. It's running 1.6.2 version 3.0. It's a Phillips from the US.
It started freezing during live TV and during scheduled recordings. Now it's freezing at the menus.
I've run msfcheck and it reported no issues.
I changed the TurboCard to failsafe. This didn't work.
What do you suggest I do?
Thanks heaps.
Couple more things to try one at a time:
1. Check that all leads are plugged in fully. Pay special attention to the hard disk power cable plug at the power supply end.
2. Unplug the network cable.
3. Unplug the network card.
If the freezing continues then your last resort is to try another hard drive. Even though you have tried mfscheck and maybe (you do not say) the one you are using is brand new this is no guarantee there are no issues with it. Any hard disk from 6GB and up will do as a test.
If you still experience problems then it is a hardware related fault which will need attention.
Thanks for that.
None of those worked, so I'll try a new harddrive. Geez I hope it's not a hardware error.
Thanks for you help. I'll get back to you soon.
