Hi All,
I have/had a Sky + Pace v2 with the original existing 40 GB drive, a Maxtor Fireeball 3 ATA/133
I got the welcoming message that
“ FOR YOUR INFOMATION 10-7
SYSTEM FAULT
Sky+ Recording and Playback are unavailable
Please call 08705 800800 for assistance “
After full system resets and after not wanting to pay £65 AND after some reading I knew that a good chance was that the HDD has failed.
I had the sky+ box 4/5 years. So I bought a replacement HDD.
The HDD Installed in without a problem but its not yet fixed , no pause no record!
So I have a question about the jumper settings as after I installed the new HDD the error message has changed to something resembling the following
“Sky + is unavailable at this time “
So a bit confused about jumpers!
The original HDD had the “jumper” set to CS Enables ( Cable Select ) which are pins 5 and 6 connected with a jumper.
My new replacement WD2500 EIDE 250 GB
The jumper settings set on the HDD sticker says Cable select setting is Pins 1 and 2 with the jumper on.
The single or master setting is no jumper required, all pins are uncovered.
I have tried the jumper on CS according to the New HDD, on Single or master and without any jumpers. I still get a “Sky + is unavailable at this time “ error
Can anyone shed any light ?
