eurovox going into standby

[craggsy12]

hi guys
a couple of nights ago i left my box recording later when i went into pvr menu it came up with error and switched itself off then reset itself, i am wondering if my hardrive is full and it has caused an error
is there a way of getting into the pvr and deleting some stuff to see if this works
the hardrive was pretty much used to full capacity when i started the recording. did mean to delete a few things but didnt get round to it
please any helpful suggestions would be great
thanks

So what are the problems your having now? will the box turn on? try to explain in more detail....

thanks for responding hiteck
ok when i press pvr on my remote it would normally show what programs i have recorded but now all i get is error and the tv screen at the top is distorted, this shows for a couple of seconds then the box resets itself ( switches off then comes back on returning to whatever channel the box was previously on )
i have tried taking hardrive out a couple of times etc and re inserting it but does the same thing.
i never switch the box to standby it is left on all the time

You will have to try wiping it via factory default,

Menu, config, clear data, factory default including recordings then power-scan channels back in as the same way you set it up before.

forgot to say when i went to pvr button again it said hardrive full or not installed so i did the old press record and it started to record then pressed pvr button and it had worked fine
deleted the recording and i now have a fully working hd
