I have a spare HR10-250 that I'm using as a SD DVR.

This morning, I turned the TV on and there was just a black screen.

No response when pressing the remote or the front panel buttons.
I unplugged the power cord and plugged it back in a few minutes later.

After that, none of the lights on the front panel came on and there
was still no sound or picture on all ouputs) However, I do hear the
hard drive and rear fan spinning.
Is my HR10 dead or is there something else that I can try? DirecTV
offered no help, except offering me a free HR21.

Thanks in advance for any help! :)

Leave the power cord out for a couple of minutes, then plug it back in.

Was there any burnt smell around the unit?

How is it connected to the TV?

Did you try a different connection?
