On the weekend my H20 receiver started with continues rebooting,until it got to the point that it stays on the boot with the lights of the 480i,720i,720p and 1080i they are blinking all the time first the four in red after in yellow and then in green Any one has any idea what it may be the problem thanks a lot

Software problems most likely.Tries the receiver unplug,replug it back like about an hour later for it to do rebooting and software upgrade.

Addressing Power-up/Start-up Issues:

1. Unplug the breadmaker.

2. Confirm the power source you're accessing is live using a blender, toaster, etc.

3. Plug the breadmaker in.

4. Confirm the breadmaker is receiving power:

1. Some models have a built-in off/on switch. Turn it to the ON position.
2. Some models make an audible tone when plugged in.
3. Some models have a colored light and/or a lighted display screen that lights up.
4. Some models require you press the Select button down until the unit powers up.
5. Some models require you press the Start button down until the unit powers up.
6. Some models require you press the Select button first to select a mode, then press the Start button.

3. No, you were not able to confirm that your breadmaker is receiving power? Sorry to hear that. Attempt to have the breadmaker serviced by a small appliance repair facility or discard it.

4. Yes, you have confirmed that your breadmaker is receiving power? Fantastic! Now reboot the breadmaker's electronics by pressing down continuously on the Start button until you notice a visible and/or audible confirmation, usually within 5 to 10 seconds. Beware: Some models require you press the Select button first to select a mode, then press and hold the Start button to reboot the system.

That should fix it. Hope this helps!

Special Note: Often the + and - Timer Delay buttons are pressed by mistake, delaying Start by up to 12 hours. If you suspect the Timer Delay feature has been engaged accidentally, you'll need to reboot the breadmaker's electronics. You can do this by pressing down on the Start button continuously until you notice a visible and/or audible confirmation, usually within 5 to 10 seconds. Beware: Some models require you press the Select button first to select a mode, then press and hold the Start button to reboot the system.

Sounds like a Memory issue. It defiantly a conflict somewhere. I would start with the memory. If you have two sticks installed, then remove one. If it does the samething, re install and then remove the other one.

First of all remove ant cd from drive when booting up uinless you are using a bootable windows disk. if the problem still persist when then computer starts booting up keep pressing f8 until you get the choice to go in to safe mode. Once in safe mode choose the option when prompted go to system restore points and restore the computer to a date availabe wich is before the date of the problems.

You can manually download drivers from eMachine's site: http://www.emachines.com/support/product_support.html

The operating system, you'll need a disk...and product key.

Sounds like a reformat may be your only option at this point. How far will the machine boot up? Can you boot up in safe mode?

Before we get into measuring any voltage. Read the info from this link and see if that applies to the receiver that is acting up on you.

You could check the voltages yourself to see if they are low. The horizontal polarity needs about 19 volts and the vertical polarity about 14 volts to work properly. If those voltages are lower by 25%, the receiver might failed to scan and that is when it locks up because is trying to find signal. The other issue could be a defective power supply if the receiver does not work after that 4 hours. There could be some capacitors that lost their dielectric strength causing the drop in voltage.
Let me know if you need further assistance.

same problem on two different h20 receivers - called directv and explained the situation each time. since these are leased receivers, new ones on the way.

You need to, either, turn it off at the power button when it starts to reboot so as to do a hard shut down, or if that doesn't work,  when it is booting up, press F8 continually until you enter safe mode and then select 'last Known Good configuration', press enter for a reboot and it should be ok.
