I have a Series 2 Directv unit. Recently it started freezing during both live and recorded programs and usually reboots shortly after. Sometimes it loses sound and/or turns black and white before the freezing. We used to have 2 satellite inputs going into the machine. We moved it to another room and only connected one input and it seemed to fix the problem for about 2 - 3 weeks. We're now seeing the same issues again. From what I've read on-line, it seems like it could be either a bad hard drive or motherboard. Any advice? Thanks.

Freezing and rebooting are almost definitely hard drive issues. Satellite tuner problems generally show up more as blocky, jerky frames. You should try a new drive - be sure to get a "replace" kit:
