BT box pro to EE tv

Put on my BT box pro tonight to be greeted by EE logo and says set up will only take a few minutes. Have been trying all evening with no luck. What's the answer. Have had no problems  with box before tonight

Sounds like it's factory reset itself. Mine did that a couple of months ago without warning. Just turned it on one day & it had reset, wiping 500GB of recordings.

You haven't said what "Trying all evening" means. Can you not complete the setup or are you hoping it will go back to how it was? If the latter then it's almost certainly a forlorn hope.

@rbz5416 thanks for reply. I tried the usual things switching off and on again, unplugging aerial , ethernet , BT button on front all to no avail. It's still the same this morning  just stuck on set up screen. From what you say I need a new box ?

@rbz5416 thanks for your help. Who do I call or where do I go to get a replacement?

Standard 150 I'm afraid. Make sure you have a flask of coffee & a packed lunch first!

Might be worth attempting a factory reset first if you haven't already.

@david1982  from your posts it looks like the box is not able to load the system from it's disk drive .  The reset you mention  in your last post , was it via the box buttons as described

Are you getting any messages currently  after the Youview  image  or is just now hanging. 

(if the reset process is not able to load a fresh system  over the Internet then it sounds fairly terminal).
