Hi Mon78mon
Error code 7400 usually means that the box has either been de-activated or needs activating.
It sounds like your older tivo box has been de-activated and that you should plug in the newer V6 box and use that instead. Your TV subscription should continue as before and yuo won't lose any channels. The V6 has the same interface and works the same as the older tivo, however it's a lot faster, has double the hard drive storage and a few more apps. The iplayer app is a definite improvement on the newer V6 box.
Thanks for the info - I received a new box a few days ago, but have not had time to connect it. Approx. one hour ago I found the TV was in 'Norwegian Blue' Parrot condition (no warning of expiry), so I will just have to wait for daylight tomorrow morning to ascertain if the new box has some life in it (my 86 years old eyes need a good light). Fortunately, my wife has Apple TV in a bedroom..
