[QUOTE="mumblecake, post: 793667, member: 374822"] I'm fairly certain that I found the solution which turns out to be fairly interesting (and sort of disturbing) and I shall contact Fortec Star support about it. The problem was that several things changed at once and I just assumed that me deleting programs was the cause. It turns out that before I deleted the rogue programs a few more programs had recorded. After deleting the rubbish entries there were 258 recorded programs left ... a lot of them only 10 min programs like Thomas the tank engine, Chuggington, etc. I deleted 2 and brought it down to 256 recorded programs and it started working. ... Box has an 8Bit integer to count the number of programs ... overflow that and the box will crash. I tested it quite thoroughly but would be glad if someone could try to confirm this. Anyway ... box working again without completely wiping the hard drive. Will add that to briangw's thread of hidden features as a hidden limitation. [/QUOTE]
