  • TiVo HD XL S03 Error

    Hi there,
    I have a TiVo HD XL that I bought used a little more than a year ago. After the original hard drive seemingly died on me, I replaced it with a DVRStore hard drive (upgraded to a 2 TB). I am now getting an S03 error which is preventing me from downloading programming info.
    Since buying this TiVo I have seen programming info run out numerous times. Original fix was to repeat guided setup. Then I learned that power cycling the TiVo/Tuning adapter and forcing the connection to the tivo servers would work. Now I get the S03 error when I try to manually connect to the servers. Today was the first time I watched as the connection was attempted and it errored out while "Loading" the new info (Step 5). I made a second attempt to force an upload and it errored while "Preparing" (Step 1). S03 both times.
    Is there something I can try other than "Clear program Info & To Do List"? Not looking forward to setting up all my season passes again (50+).
    Thanks for any advice!!

    I think you got a bad drive from that company. I am biased, but we have heard from several customers of companies such as this pone who have received drives that don't work. If you want us to fix the problem (assuming the drive is physically good), see:

    Unfortunately, the problem can't be fixed without wiping the drive.
