Could be a hard drive fault on the box or an HDMI connection problem (assuming you're using HDMI)

[John22]

Yes i am using hdmi so if it is the hard drive at fault i take it that you cant do anyrhing about it

[V_Meldrew]

I believe that BT will replace the box FOC If you're still in contract and the hdd dies, they did mine.

[John22]

Thats the problem im not on contract i just bought it out right 3 years ago from currys for 130 i think

[V_Meldrew]

That might make a difference, perhaps one of the mods can advise

[John22]

O well if it does pack up and die i will go and get an uptodate one i think
