[QUOTE="tosher, post: 755371, member: 374153"] Hi to all who contibuted and thanks Through trial and error and help I have got the hard drive working and recording tv programmes :). This is how I managed to get the HDD disk to work. 1. Get a copy of SpotMau and copy their disk recovery CD. 2. Use your PC take out your old hard drive and replace it with the one you want to formatt. 3. Run your PC with the SpotMau recovery disk ( need to set your PC to boot up by the CD). 4. When the PC boots up run >A: fdisk and state (Y) large disk. then use the programme to partition the disk , then initialize the disk. After this is done close programme. 5. Restart PC and run SpotMau disk recovery and use the formatt disk option in FAT32 (number7). 6. Replace the new formatted disk back in your Dreambox and BINGO it should work. [/QUOTE]
