</div></div>Are you just losing a tuner?<br>
<br>
If so:<br>

If it is really locking up, sorry, mine doesn't do that.<br>

</div></div></blockquote></div><br>Thanks for that Nico, exactly the issue my Nova T500 has (Myth shows tuner 2 as sleeping, tuner 1 is fine). Was on my list of things to fix, along with the "card doesn't work on a warm start" (only on "cold") with firmware 1.20. Similar issue to Richards, but I don't experience lock-ups (yet, quickly crosses fingers).<br>
