    Have you tried resetting the Stream box?

    Settings > System > Reset

      Hi again 6655darren 

      I don't know if the following still works, however it gives the option of both a hard reset and a soft reset. (It was the original reset method used when the boxes where first introduced. Sorry I can't check as I don't have the same box as yourself).

      Unplug the USB from the back of the box and then hold the power button on the front of the box while  plugging the USB back in. (Keep hold of the power button while doing this)

      Keep holding the power button in when the Welcome screen appears for 5 seconds and then let go. 

      A menu will appear. Now tap the power button to select which reset option (hard or soft) you prefer. I would try the soft reset option first, and if that fails try the hard reset.

      Then hold the power button again for 5 seconds on the one selected option to reset it

  • Thanks very much for the detailed response. Will give it a go :)
