TiVo help
I have a TIVO THR 22 and it is failing. I am not giving it up if I don’t have to. Sent it to weaknees and I have had the hard drive and power supply changed. It still keeps restarting. If I buy a new one from weaknees will directv activate it? Can I just put the old card in the new TiVo? Can I activate it on my own? Anybody know any other ideas? I called directv and she said they won’t activate it because it is from somewhere else and a TiVo.

You can't switch cards. Doubt it is "new" but refurbished. It is a DTV receiver that runs TiVo software so it is not made by TiVo.

I can help you repair it, as I have experience with these receivers. It does sound like a hard drive issue, and WeaKnees may not have done a proper job when attempting to fix the issues.

Have you check with weaknees to see if you are still under a warranty?
