my dw800 just keeps rebooting.i've factory reset and reflashed with the latest flash but after the "KRYPTVIEW HD" logo it will show the EPG then reboot.
the odd time the TV channel picture might come on for a few seconds then off it goes again doing its rebooting cycle.sometimes i might also get " code updating" , , picture comes on then it f8cks off rebooting again.
anyone any idea's how to solve this or we talking doorstop ?.

go back to the old firmware guys that should sort you out :)
 
Mine is doing the same!!! When the rare time it does stay up,
EPG is none existent...
 
I had that problem on the newer firmware but factory reset then downgraded to old firmware solved the problem (for me)

well mine was rebooting after a scan,is yours rebooting for no reason ?
 
well tbh it aint mine , i got lumbered with it tonight of a good friend.
is the factory reset the same as the default setting tab in the menu's ?.i cant see it mentioned in the manual.mine just keeps rebooting like the old PACE box would ,,,gets to the EPG for a split 2nd then starts again ,, you cant fart ne mind get in to the menu's to do out !!.

thought is was tried that ,
any thing else i can try before i sling it ?.

p.s. i thought i'd try flashing it again with the old SW.while it was programming my 4 gang socket tripped and the box went off .now its stuck on the "LOADER V10" and wont boot .
is it truly time to launch this piece of shyte ?.

have you tried reflashing it again from the stuck position? other than trying that im at a loss. not encountered that problem mate sorry. where did he get the box? it should be less than a year old and maybe its still under gaurantee? its a long shot but worth looking into.
 
delete all channels in channel manager then reflash but make sure you do it at the first input not after a splitter

yeah I know mate I've got the same box and had the same problem and the box was on a second input in another room after the splitter and it wouldn't reflash, took box out and into back room where cable comes into house (strongest signal ?) and it reflashed ok but you have to delete all channels and start again sorry about the long winded explanation but I'm a 47 year old gas fitter who is brilliant at fixin boilers and not so good at all this tech stuff but this worked on mine after it was doin me head in

there should be 2 lots of firmware in this thread,you might be better off going with the older firmware though mate :)

as for the rebooting problem try this

take feed out
do a factory reset
flash older firmware
plug feed back
scan
this worked for a friend of mine
