recently upgraded my Tivo HD with a WD 500 gig drive using WINMFS. Everything appeared to be fine except now, when I go to "fing progams and downloads" I cannot access the "Download TV, Movies & Web Video" menu - the screen freezes on the "please wait" screen and then defaults to live tv. Does anyone know how I can get web browsing-downloads working again on this unit? Thanks in advance.

That sounds very much like a broadband problem to me and may or may not have anything to do with your newly installed hard drive. I'd have a look at your network connections, reboot your router/modem as well as TiVo. If that doesn't fix it try reseting everything by switching the network connection to dial up and then back to network and re-enter all of your configuration info. If there's still a problem try popping your original drive in and running it to see if all is well. If it is you could try wiping your new drive and re-imaging it with the original again if you can part with your current recordings. (Or you could use TiVo Desktop to transfer them to your PC first.)

Perhaps others can chime in with some thoughts.

Best of luck...let us know what happens!
