    Did you check (a) the fuse, (b) if the mains cable is detachable, is it properly inserted into the back panel socket and (c) is there an on/off switch on the back and if so, is it on?

    Thanks for the reply!:D

    (a) No, first try no lights came on but it was making a sound like the hard drive was booting up but nothing happend. Plugged it in elsewhere to try-no noise, no nothing!

    (b) Yes & yes.

    (c) Searched all over looking for a power switch or reset button, but no go. Pressing the power button at the front made no difference, as did pressing ALL the buttons on the front!:confused:

    There are discussions here (http://www.fixya.com/support/t807417-thomson_dti6300_16_digital_tv_recorder) about a number of options to get the box working again but with some of them you will lose your data.
