My System: 30W,7W,13E,16E,19E & 28E Dishes everywhere Darkbox 2008HD Sly+ V3 | It will probably be capacitors in the power supply or the hard drive. As your in the UK repair should be easy enough but maybe not cost effective. Good luck | ||

My System: Sky+ HD, TM-3500 D+ USB PVR, CD Total (FI) | have you tried pressing the SKY button on remote instead of power on? I've had similar thing happen before, but pressing SKY turned on the receiver. | ||

My System: Sky+, numerous PCs. |
Takes a few minutes to reboot the system but has always worked for us. Is it connected to a working phone line? If it isn't I was wondering if this is why it's having a hissy fit. | |||
