dm 800 wont boot first time

[nush]

hi im after a bit of help with dreambox 800hd clone sim 2.10
when i boot up from cold the box takes several attempts to get started. first couple of attempts only lan connection lights up. then the oled will flash on and then straight off again. then it will start and run really well. even if i switch power off for a few minutes it will restart fine, but left for an hour or more and im back to the same problem.

anyone else had this problem and able to sort. thanks in advance

Majority Will either say its a bad flash or change your power supply.
Re flash it and see if that fixes it.

Wouldnt think its the tuner but you could reboot without the tuner if its the same it might point to the motherboard.
I would try an image like Pli thats pretty simple and hasnt alot going on it.
Some of the other images arent that stable,

Another option is to try different images with older bootloaders.
Hopefully one might suit your troublesome box,
Dont suppose you have sata hhd with it or loads of other plugins?
Keep it as simple as possible,
