NTL Box Error
 
what does an M043 error mean when your stb is displaying "tune" and you hold down while booting (yes i read the "Useful STB Info" Thread) my stb is a pace 4001b fyi. The picure disappeared on every channel at around 12:15am while watching QI on UKTV2 +1 and after a hard reset it started displaying "TUNE" and staying there for god-knows how long and it has carried on doing this and is still doing it now as i'm writing this.

:welcome:

Usually if it is stuck on tune it means i'm dead i'm afraid...

If it is not working in the morning then sounds like a call to faults is in order

Hi thanks. Good news. Its working this morning. The thing is I've had the box for about a month and it has been acting very strange.
Like one time when the programe reminder came up, I press on the comfurm and when it went to the channal it went black. So I did a Hard reset and the all the lights came on and it said 8888. So I looked on here while it was off and according to one of the threads it was no its way out. After about 3 or so hours of being off it worked again.
Then there was last night. My fiancee said that when he put the cable back on while I was a sleep (about 2am) It worked again.
Is this normal and what should I do?

seeing as you said it said to you 8888 on display i'd call ntl soon as it might be a memory issue? and could happen again quite soon try page up page down & blue key on remote see if any errors logged in final page [4?]
