Sky+

Well me Sky+ is acting up now. When playing back recordings the picture is jerky and the sound goes off, after a bit it will freeze and the lights on the front go out.
Depending on our luck sometimes it goes to a blue screen, sometimes it goes back to live telly when press backup and sometimes (less though) it turns itself off.

The original 40gb HD is now in my pc and a new 80gb sits in the sky box. Its well over a year since I did that mod so unless the hard drive is goosed anyone advise the problem?

I've done the system restore, rebuild etc to no avail.

HELP!!

Ive got a Humax freeview PVR and had this problem. The exchanged it for a new one as they said the most likely thing was the HD was knackered. Try it out in your PC maybe. Sounds like it is only parts of the disk though, which is what happened to mine, roughly half way through most recordings it would pack up.

H.Disk was the source of the problem for me.
