6 Tivos FREE to collect Crawley West Sussex
Posted: Mon Feb 12, 2018 4:14 pmIt's well past the time to move on and dispose of my collection. I have 6 Tivos - the usual PVR10 model free to collect from Crawley West Sussex
4 have the standard 40gb drives. One has a Samsung 200Gb, and one has a 500Gb WD. I have just fired them all up after several years asleep and they all booted up to the home page ok. One had a 1Tb drive but it went in to guided setup when turned on with no escape as no phone connection so I've removed that drive to re-use elsewhere and fitted an original 40Gb drive that had minimal use which booted ok.
One of the 40Gb models starts up without showing the usual "powering up" screen and the screen remains blank until the Tivo button is pressed. Not come across this before. I suspect it may be faulty[?].
I also have a 512mb cache card, not fitted. Also a few remotes - some working, some a bit erratic.
I hope somebody can make use of them. Otherwise it's ebay or the dump.
