Try a fresh re-flash via USB stick of the last stable image that you had on your Duo before you tried the last update, you should also be able to do a system restore so that you can get your settings back

just noticed that you tried re-flashing is it a red button or a RED LIGHT

Power the receiver down via the switch on the rear panel and leave it for half a hour then try again. Also format the USB stick you use to flash the receiver and check the file structure of the image prior to putting it on the stick.

strange it sounds like the old red light of death but that should not happen with a New Original Duo

are you sure that it is not a Clone

WOS does not sell clones so you can rule that out.

Looks like I have the Same Issue - I changed the Capacitor even tho I changed it afew weeks ago.. if I leave the box of for 20 Mins work but soon as I change the channel the whole box freezes.. so I disconnected the Hard drive and it worked for 30 mins then started Freezing again - thinking might be Power Supply or Software?? any ideas guys

got many plugins on box,do you use cacheflush recomended for the duo and got a swap file setup,want to rule everything else out first.
