No mate it doesn't reboot, it comes on the vfd shows- E some numbers change then boot and flashes purple around the on/off button, then openvix comes across the screen in black and white and vfd says giga, then the screen goes blank, the vfd counts up from 1 - 24 and gigablue teamred comes on vfd says 25 gigablue loading is now on screen, then continues after a few seconds to count up to 99 then the picture (bbc1) comes on the screen

Thanks for all your help so far, it must be stressing you out as much as it is me by now haha
