Hello all,
I need your help fixing my Tivo. I have a TDC24004A that has done a full freak out, and is now essentially inoperable, with green screens and constant rebooting. I figure the easiest way to resurrect it is to replace the hard drive. The problem is that I don't think it is a good idea to spend any money on this old machine. Every dollar spent on this is a dollar that should be spent on a Tivo HD that is not nearly obsolete.
I don't have a 40 GB drive to replace the original with. But I do have two 20 GB drives. If I have a backed up image from a compatible Tivo (with no shows), can MFSLive restore it to a smaller 20 GB drive? And then can I add the second 20 GB drive to get as much space as the original?
Any help would be appreciated. And, by the way, if any of you are still hosting disk images compatible with my broken Tivo, would you mind sharing?
Thanks,
thczv
