My sister's Series 1 TiVo, with the 1.4 image, has lost all its recordings and has had its settings set back to the default USA ones (I think).

There was a power surge/blackout at her house last night when her niece tripped the safety switch. The TiVo rebooted, but came back with no recordings showing, and the internal tuner (installed by Darren) not showing (blue screen, no input source).

System information says:

TiVO Account Status: 0: Unknown, call 1-877-367-8486

The disk is still working, because the OzTiVO image boot screen appears, and TiVOweb is running.

Source input is still set to Coax RF in.

I can re-run guided setup, but what about her recordings? Should I run a MFS tools scan over it (telnet works). It seems like a corrupted directory.

Or should we just blow off the recordings and go and buy her a TiVO HD?
