  • Series 3 fails to boot all the way

    After several power outages in the area (major wind storm), my series 3 takes forever to boot past the powering up screen. I eventually get as far as rechecking my network info, connecting and updating (successful), pressing 'select' to continue and -> reboot to powering up screen. Is it dead?

    Sounds like it's just a bad drive. Those are generally drive failure symptoms in a TiVo. Replacements are here:

    You should also check your power supply:

    Assuming you have lifetime service, it's worth fixing.
    Been here a long time . . .
