Freezing issues are due to either a fan issue, hard drive issue, or perhaps a bad power supply. Are there any error codes when the HR44 freezes, or is it just general slowness when going through the Guide and Menus?

Hi, there. We're sorry for the trouble with your Genie box. Yes, clearing the storage on the receiver will help the freezing issue.

The HR44 only has an over temp cooling fan.
