black screen
I have just installed a 3tb WD harddisk in my C300. And now i am trying to install NMT apps. After 50% of formatting the screen goes black. So i don't know what he is doing. I also tried to put the files on an usb stick and then try again. But the same thing happens. Is this a known issue? Can anybody help me with this?

And now i am trying to install the new firmware for the Popcorn and i select USB device but nothing happens. Screen goes a little bit grey and nothing happens.

Also i got a problem with the settings. The wizard settings aren't being saved. When i shut down the device and boot it up again all settings are gone.

RE: black screen
Same here,
I experienced the same thing at 54% the screen goes black.
also the USB causes problems with sparking when plugging in, wich immediately locks up the C300

RE: black screen
There was a combination of problems with my c300.
So it is still unresolved.

First I have to wait for a new C300 and an new HD as mine 3Tb seems to be broken.
The C300 locks up everytime when using USB or network, so I will have to wait.

RE: black screen
I now have a new C300 and a new 3TB disk and it seems a lot better.
But don't forget the rule about harddisks:

If they last more then 3 days, they are likely to last for years.
New harddisk usually fail within the first 3 days of use

Cheers
Tom
