My System: Sky+ DRX280 Amstrad, Pc..Dell Dimention C521

Hi All,

Yep I answered that one a bit 'premature',
Up-date... Yes it fixed it but after about a week when I tried to Record the same time as I was watching another program, a big NoGo, so I was in touch with Sky again and they carried out all sorts of checks and in the end sent an Engineer out to me, they checked everything at my end again including my Dish installation and everything seems to be in order so it seems to be on the Box between the 'Input2' and the 'hard Disc' or 'Tuner'.

Luckely when I bought it off Ebay I didn't send any 'Feedback' so I have been in touch with the seller and they have agreed to check it again and if it proves to be faulty they will replace it, , so it went in the post this morning.

The funny thing is it seems to be an 'intermittant' snag as sometimes it gets a signal on 'Input 2' and then it doesn't 'lock-on', so no way can you 'record' one program and 'watch' another.

By the way the Sky engineer replaced my old 40Gb box but he woudn't replace the 80Gb but at least the 'seller' is going to do something there, .

Well I will just have to wait now and see what happens, but I'll keep you posted on it, Cheers Barrie.
