My first impression of this forum is that the administrators are on top of it. The FAQs are great and saved me a lot of searching.
Anyway, my Hughes HDVR2 has been freezing and, otherwise, hanging up on an intermittent basis for about 2 months. I would have to unplug the unit and plug it back in for reboot. After this, it would run slowly again for a while, but would eventually pick back up.
3 weeks ago, it finally died. When I unplug and reboot, it gets caught up on the Welcome screen. According to the FAQs, I have a bad hard drive. I was hoping it was the power supply.... oh well.
I have the original 40 GB hard drive. If I replace it with, say, and 80 GB hard drive, do I lose all of my programming (general satellite settings, channels, season passes, etc.)? Obviously, I will lose our recorded programs.
I would love to just buy the hard drive, pop it in, and be 100% back to normal, minus my recorded programs. Is this possible?
Thanks!
