    Default Dm800se Rebooting on service search

    I'm needing some help with a dm800se clone.I have had it for about 3 years now and its had its problems,mainly down to my tinkering,but I fear I may have a problem with the box itself now.
    I came home from work yesterday and a blue light was flashing and the loading bar constantly going up,then the box would reboot. I tried flashing a new image using my browser but it just wouldn't load in. I have flashed successfully using sunray flashup and have a new image on my box.

    Now every time I get to the point where I start an Automatic scan,the box reboots.It keeps doing this.I have tried a few different images and get the same result. I think there maybe issues with my tuner but thought I would double check to see if anyone else has had the same problem and maybe have a solution. I don't wan't to buy a new tuner if its something else that's knackered in the box.
    Thanks in advance

    I'm getting this also. It started happening today. Did you manage to fix it?

    Something's happened where I was setting up a recording via my browser and the Dreambox rebooted when I hit 'enter' on the keyboard instead of 'save'. Rather a force of habit in general on a PC, but something happened and the Dreambox rebooted, then got stuck halfway while booting up.

    Twice I've tried to reflash the image (an OpenPli one from Feb 2014 which I know works - for some reason another one I tried in Dec 2014 didn't work, and when I asked on their forum, they seemed confused as to why the Feb 2014 had worked as the Dec 2014 one wasn't for this box, apparently). Anyway, I reflashed the Feb 2014 last December and it was fine. Today? I flash it, it boots up to the usual screen, but when I set up the satellite and I go to scan for new channels (whether automatic or manual), as soon as I press 'scan', the box reboots. And I'm just going into a forever spiral.

    When I last tried a non-OpenPli image, I tried a few and they were awful. It would lock up often and I had to reboot daily just to use the damn thing.
