Can anyone help? I've down loaded the AltEPG.ISO, disconnected my other System Drives and attached an old Tivo Hard disk (admittedly still containing old recordings) but on switch on I get the following erorr: DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER. I try this but the whole thing repeats. Any Help gratefully appreciated as I'm stuck at square 1. Sandeman

Two possibilities come to mind:
1. Your BIOS is not set with CD-ROM as a boot option.
or
2. You have burned the downloaded iso as a file rather than an image. If you put the CD you made in an already booted PC and "explore" the CD, what file(s) do you see.
