Technomate 6900 - timer issue

[Barry_432]

Has anyone come across this. I have a programme entered in slot 2 of the timer for 8/7. When I went to access this today the receiver seemed to turn itself off - TV screen went blank, front panel went blank and then all restarted. HD was not recognised after that and needed reformatting.

Really happy with the 6900 - not that impressed with the PVR as external hard drive is tempremental - have needed to repartition and format a couple of times

Cannot delete this programme on the timer - hoping it will disappear on the 8th. Any ideas.

Hi Barry. Cannot answer your timer problem but I , too, am pleased with the 6900 but not with the Maxtor hd I got along with it at the beginning. Can't get it to record and don't know quite what to do. Should I download some software again? (Had to do it before) It's tempermental indeed. Hope you can help. Regards Michael r. ps Sorry about your timer problem - should I get a timer?
