Thats how the second replacement box died after 12 hours. Unless you are in your first 12 months, be prepared fir a £65 call out fee for an engineer to give you a refurbed box.

I have had to use this one twice. It's a real pisser to lose all your recording, but nuch better than £65 to callout charge!

It works a treat

My Sky box used to do that over a number of years and it always recovered itself when unplugged and then reconnected to the mains. My Sky HD box has also done it twice. It takes a bit longer to reset itself when you plug it in again though.
