    Hi. Im new to these PVRs. Just got my Eurovox with 120Gb hard drive on Wednesday. Have the channells installed but when I hit the record button or try to set up a timer I'm told that there's no hard drive. Do I need to download software in order for the PVR to recognise the internal hard drive or is there something else I need to do. Any help appreciated.

    Have you flashed it with 1.1A firmware? Follow Hiteck's Guideif you haven't.

    If you have do a factory reset and reflash. Also make sure the HDD is pushed home firmly, as sometimes the IDE pins are not pushed in all the way. You need to make a recording for the box to recognise the HDD sometimes.

    I too am having problems with the HD on my PVR I can record but when recording i can only view about 6 other channels. Should i be using a particular HD as I am using one I already had?
