Below are all of Diana's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Following my comment from 21st July. I tried returning my box without the aerial and then again with but the same thing keeps happening. I just wanted to do a factory reset but the only option close to that is the "format disk" option. Once I put in the pin it warns ne that all my recordings and timers will be deleted so I didn't go ahead with it. I really didn't want to lose everything :(

It was asking me to do a first time installation every time I switched it on. I switched it off and overnight it switched itself on and asked for first time installation again. I didn't want to format the disk and lose everything and the warranty just ran out about a month ago. I tried doing the scan again without the aerial as you suggested the first time and this time it worked!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I could hug you right now!

I just came back from holiday last week and noticed a problem with my freeview plus box. It seemed to have recorded fine while I was gone, but now it keeps asking me to do a first time installation every time I switch it on. It adds all the channels fine and I can see my previous recordings, but the program guide is gone completely blank. It just says no information available and I can't see what's on and I can't record anything.
I've tried switching the box off and unplugging it etc, nothing seems to work. If I switch it off, it will switch itself on overnight and again ask to do a first time channel scan. I really don't know what to do. I've only had the box for a year and I can't afford to buy another one
