I have a Humax Fox T2 500gb still under Humax warranty. I have an intermittent power problem. On three occasions the box has died whilst watching a recording. It appears that the power has failed. I then try switching power on and off using switch on rear of box and at the wall switch but with no effect. But interestingly/luckily when I try again 24 - 48 hours later the box comes back to life.
Looks like a power failure in the box but Humax support tell me that I need to reformat the HDD and 'see what happens' before they will think about replacing the box. I cannot see how the hard dtive could cause a power failure but I am stuck with the instructions from Humax Support.
Has anyone else had same problem and did reformating the internal drive fix the problem?
If I do a reformat I am concrened about the recordings on the box. I know I can copy these onto an external hard drive but can I copy them back onto the box after the reformat?
