Is it standard reboot or. Green screen reboot. Did you put any files that you remember on the box prior to this happening

For sure something you added is casuing the problem, reflash and add one at a time and see which is causing the problem.

I get this sometimes if I send to much to the box and I've not got the swap file running.

moogwai are you running a swapfile, and when you say you've put satmate on, did you do an EPG Download, how many providers did you select?

i dont know what a swap file is so i dont know about that!! lol sorry. i did send 3 movies over to it in one go.....maybe that's got summat to do with it and i also only downloaded the uk epg from one sat.
will do a reflash me thinks. thanks for your help chaps.

Just test one thing at a time. Then you will have an idea where the problem lies

Are you using the latest ViX image? That causes looped rebooting if you download and use certain skins.
However it sounds like you don't actually have that scenario.
