Pete Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 My cable box is dying. After various reboots and odd error codes I've managed to watch Jonathan Ross. The thing is stuck with Err! on the front and I can't change channel and it's stuck with the MOBO awards on. I'd rather have my teeth pulled.

Pete Posted September 22, 2007 Author Share Posted September 22, 2007 what cable box is it??? I'm sure I have a couple of boxes around somewhere, although as we're moving house I don't quite know where they are at the moment. It's a PACE box. Thanks for the thought, but I'll be getting a shiny new one for free on Friday anyway. To be honest I don't watch much TV myself, but it does keep Vicki quietly entertained.

Pabs Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 oh ok - I'm sure the box I have here somewhere is one of the dark green/black PACE boxes. Hope you get it sorted soon, as the std 4 channels are utter poo these days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted September 28, 2007 Author Share Posted September 28, 2007 Got the new box today. A nice small silver Samsung unit - it's FAR faster on menus, channel switching, TV listings etc. Much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
