Hi,

I recently swapped out my hard drive , (it had given up the ghost!) for a replacement- but my Sky+ box failed to boot up.

I did check to ensure that the jumper was on CS, and I know this disk is ok with a Sky+ box, as it's an unwanted drive from a friends Sky+ box, (he swapped it for a larger disk).

The Sky+ box lights stay red, occasionally flickering.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards

Lobby.

when you connect power to the box, hold down the left and right arrow keys whilst doing it - I think this forces a full system reset.

Undoubtedly the disk or even cable might have issues.....
