why didnt the installer run through it all as they are supposed to do? Title: Re: SKY + help PLZ Post by: Dingdell on December 16, 2008, 06:50:28 PM Take card out. Turn whole sytem off at mains. Allow 30 secs. Turn on again without card in - wait until system reboots properly, then put card in and it should accept.
This what they told me to do when it happened to me and it worked. (This is the sky version of tunring the computer off and rebooting) :dontask: Title: Re: SKY + help PLZ Post by: Josedinho on December 16, 2008, 06:52:30 PM I've had HD installed and it was just a case of waiting.
Try Dingdell's method but i think it just takes time to go through there system that they have switched you. Title: Re: SKY + help PLZ Post by: cia260895 on December 16, 2008, 06:53:42 PM was going to say what ding did but it was to much for my 1 finger typing

Title: Re: SKY + help PLZ Post by: Tractor on December 16, 2008, 08:01:40 PM On Sky remote.
Press services 4.Sytem Setup Then press 01 select quite quickly This puts you into installers menu. 6.New Insallation. Folow instructions. This is what the engineer should have done but no harm repeating it. GL! Title: Re: SKY + help PLZ Post by: cdw1111 on December 16, 2008, 08:09:12 PM To avoid sky's queues try this no.
