direct tv tivo
Lataf Airam asked:


My R10 Tivo based directv receiver was giving me glitches (freezing every 10-15 mins), i called Directv and were unable to resolve the problem.
they offered to send a replacement unit. I received an R15 Direct tv plus which I’ve previously owned. I returned it in the pass ‘couse it would not let me record.

Can I fix my old unit by doing those drive upgrade kits they sell online? (many people claim my problem is a bad drive)

Can I buy a unit from eBay without a card and use it with my own old card? or do I need to buy a new card?

What if the one i buy from ebay comes with a new card, will direct tv activate it without questions?

All the help will be greatly appreciated
