    They returned it to me (after me having to pay postage both ways!) working again with Zeus installed.
    Took them about 5 days total including he delivery times.

    Quite a fast turnaround then sucks about paying the postage
    If the box turns on VERY doubtful its the PSU, if it doesn't turn on and smoke comes out the top and it stinks then its the PSU


    EDIT: you can remove the mainboard and just send that off (check with TM 1st that's OK) to reduce postage costs

    Yeah. And when I spoke with them on the phone, they said "it is not that unusual for this to happen during a flash!"

    Sorry mate but thats utter nonsense, I have flashed my various E2 receivers, including three TM-OE receivers several thousand times each and not once had a PSU expire as a result, they are doing what they normally do, IE palm the blame onto any one but them selves.

    Hi Peeps just a quick update
    Having posted box to tm they returned it fixed after 3days, quite a good response. (postage £24 in total)
    Asked the lady at TM what was wrong her reply was that guy who fixed it was out on lunch but says on job sheet mother board replaced.
    It came back with "open pl" on it, I'm a bit reluctant to put Halious image on as my other TM twin with this image seems to have problems. mainly from standby not activating to come on through hdmi and when does has a purple haze to picture only thing to do is to restart/total reboot.
    I'll be going back to zeuse image till latest one improves.

    Hi.
    The Open PLI is a 4D image I think.
    I have tried the latest 4D image and openatv, and they all have the same problems.
    I can only assume your box has been returned with a slightly older version of 4D.
    Yeah, as you know, Zeus works fine once you have the correct bootloader from Technomate.
    Steve.
