    Does TM 3 have internal fan? If so check fan control and set at around 1500rpm

    To be honest i get this like 3 to 5 times per week. Reflash new installation nothing helping. I reach a point thinking to change receiver.

    Hi davedub,

    Mine freezes at least once everyday after a few hours of use, box just locks up with VIX logo spinning in the top left of screen. Have to power it off at the back and boot it up. Did changing the fan speed help you?

    Thanks,

    Contact your retailer. Follow instruction/tests to the letter.

    Funny - I gave Efision OS3 which is basically same box and experiencing exactly same issues.

    Did you guys find anything that worked in the end or did you return to retailer?

    I believe there was an issue with the remote control using a vix image, pressing the buttons too fast causes the image to freeze.
    Go a bit slower inbetween button pressing and try it .

    Thanks Ghost,

    Issue is more serious than that. Front display is registering remote when pressed but screen is black.

    I believe it is a power supply unit issue, box not getting enough power to run HDD, do it stalls. Current PSU is limited to 3.5 Amps, so Edision are sending me a 5A PSU.

    ILL let her Technomate /Exision users know how I get on. Looking through the Technomate forum on here it seems a regular issue.

    Mine wasn't a remote problem - I ruled that one out, nor was it software related.

    Edision have sent me a new Power supply as it looks like the box may not have been getting enough power to run internal/external HDD when using existing 3.5A PSU. This may have been causing box to freeze.

    Should have new 5A PSU in a few days to test. Will let Technomate/Edision users on the forums here know as it seems to be a common one.

    They are as buggy as fcuk that model produced by Edison probably down to hardware. I recommended the Optimuss OS plus 2 to two friends of mine and they have had nothing but trouble. Failed recordings due to the hard drive magically just disappearing. He tried different drives and images but problem persisted. Eventually posted box back to seller who sent box back to Edision. They repaired it but actually didn't make any comment on what they actually fixed. He flashed the box to the bare requirements for zapping and recording. It worked well for a month but he is back to square one with the internal drive not been recognized.
