    DM800HD Won't Boot When USB Drive is Present

    Hi all.

    Noticed today after fitting a USB flash drive into my DM800HD to use the PVR that when I reboot the box, it get stuck on booting and won't load.

    However when I remove the USB flash drive, the box boots up fine.

    Can anyone help me figure out what's going on?

    Thanks!

          I'm using OpenPli 2.1 BETA.

          I've formatted the USB drive using the Harddrive -> Initialize option on the box.
