T-60 continually rebooting

[scs_dtv]

After a power loss, my T-60 is now continually rebooting. I have a cache card which seems to write/verify/cache correctly, then I get the almost there message. I am able to telnet in for about 1-2 minutes, then a yellow screen and the unit reboots (welcome Powering Up).

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I search the threads but did not find anything pertinent.

With the cache card in there... it could be just about anything.
Could be the hard drive, could be another hardware thing....

Sorry to resurrect a 6 month old thread, but I'm having exactly the same problem. Took Earl's advice and combed tivocommunity.com, but couldn't find anything. Any idea of a specific place to look over there?

I had three quick power blips in succession (within 2 minutes of each other), and now my T-60 continually reboots, but never gets all the way through to search for the satellite signal. I get "Welcome. Powering Up...", then "Almost There...", but then the screen just flashes yellow and the cycle repeats. Help! I know it's an ancient T-60, but I like it and really want to hang onto it. Is there any sort of "reset" button like there is on the newer D* receivers?
