TiVo stalled in start up

[JRyan1]

Tried rebooting the Tivo box and goes all the way to startup mode and nothing but a blank screen and mute. Might need a replacement box and a new tv remote? @virginmedia

The quickest way to report service faults is to call in - 150 from a VM phone or 0345 4541111 from any other phone.

Faulty TiVo are now replaced with V6, running the same software but on a much newer & more capable box... providing you have VM home broadband.

Hi JRyan1, 

Thanks for taking the time to contact us via the Community. It's lovely having you on board with us in the Forums. ⭐

We're sorry to hear you're having an issue with your TiVo box. 

Taking a look at diagnostics here, it does look like the box will need replacing. We won't be able to fix this remotely so I would like to arrange for an engineer to come to take a look at this for you. 

I just need to confirm the address to ensure we are booking the visit on the correct account. I have sent you a direct message to allow us to do this with you in a private space. If you are using a PC/Laptop then you can just click on the little ✉ at the top right-hand side of the page to access your inbox. If you are on a mobile/tablet device then instead click on the little circle icon in the top right then select 'Messages'. 😊

Thanks,
