I have just upgrade our Sky account to multiroom. I purchased a sky plus hd box off ebay without a harddisk and have installed a 500gb WesternDigital drive in there. Obviously there is no programs to copy off another box or anything. So I just installed it without using copy+ however I’m getting the System Fault – Sky Playback and recording are unavailable.

Ive phoned sky on the number and explained. They have reset the box (which I had already done) Rebuilt the planner (already done) and resent the signal to the card.

None of this has worked. I have tried to do a reset holding down the left and right buttons after killing the power, but all that happens is I get the Black sky please wait screen and then the box goes back into standby.

Anyone got any ideas?
