    Default DM800 can't find HDD

    Gentlemen,

    My usually reliable DM800 sometimes goes into mumble mode whereby it can not find its internal 320GB HDD on boot up.

    When you click the RED record button the message of "Missing/hdd/movie comes up + No HDD found or HDD not initialised" which I know is incorrect.

    It usually takes 3x or 4x total reboots to find the HDD and then it's right for ages.

    Has anyone else had the same problem and is there a fix?

    Kind regards,

    I'd take a guess and say it's a power supply problem, try to power the HDD from an external power supply and see if the problem is still present.

    Abode,

    Thanks, I have tried various power supplies and the results are always identical, any other clues?

    Kind regards,
