How do you sign up to take part in all of this?

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

You dont need to sign up. Just be home and awake when the window opens.

Thanks - I'll read up on it I guess.

Make sure to use on screen reboot as recommended versus pulling plug or red button reset. You can find it here in menu.

Menu->Setup->Reset->Restart (the first option)

Earls latest update has the chances of this happening at 65%, used to be 50%. If it doesn't happen this weekend there will be a bunch of disappointed folks out there.

I feel like a real ass right now, I just spent 20 minutes trying to download it before realizing it is tommorrow night.

Thats OK.
Practice never hurt anyone

Brewer,
When was this method advised ?
I have never done a download this way, I have always done the red button and the code ... will this not work ?


If you do the Menu- Set Up- Reset- Restart, do you lose your current settings and or recodings ?

I always thought that , that way was to basically start from scratch, obviously I have not done it this way ... yet.

Earl says at http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=88432 to avoid the RBR or pulling the plug if at all possible. He compares it to holding the power button on a PC 5 seconds to get it to shut down. The recommend way to reboot is via the menus and no you don't loose your settings (besides the active weather setup).

Thanks Rad,

Again, according to Earl, the preferred order is a reset via the menus, then red button then power cord. Since there is a harddrive in there the PC analogy makes sense.

Yes, It does make sense, I just never thought about it that way, it basically is a computer, so ya, sounds right.

You do the Reset Recorder option, I hope !

Here it goes .....
Do you still do the 02468 ?
Opps, the answer to my own question is Yes !!

Big white screen teaze before the restart

[Brewer4]

Up and running. So far looks good. Clean.
