  1. Thanks a lot alanchow. So no way to force boot from the USB in this instance? How would the distributer or control 4 try this out of interest?
  2. Same result with the SD Card from my working HC-250. I guess it's toast. So back to my original questions: What I can expect to pay a dealer to fix this? Does anyone think this is fixable or is it dead? I do not have a dealer so if anyone can recommend a dealer to me?
  3. Thanks for the responses guys. I think the flashing wifi light is a bit of a red herring. It seems to indicate a damaged root system according to research on other posts/forums. Ethernet is also completely non-functional so no way to SSH or telnet into the box to have a play around. Next plan of action is to swap out the internal micro SD card with one from a working HC-250 I also own. Whilst I am sure this is a job for the "pros", I want to make sure I know what I am talking about when I speak to the dealers. My understanding is that the majority of the file system is stored on the SD card so perhaps by some miracle this will work. Will post updates on my findings.
  4. Thanks for the super quick reply mallom. I did connect one but could not see network flashing lights from the cable, may try again tomorrow. Are you implying some kind of ssh and force boot from USB or am I jumping the gun a bit? Be interested to know what command I would use. My Linux is ok but not fantastic
  5. I bought a bunch of second hand gear and hidden in this treasure trove was an HC-250. Unfortunately the lights are all solid blue except the wifi which flashes red. The Factory reset at the back is also unresponsive so nothing happens when you hold it in and reboot it. Just wondering what I can expect to pay a dealer to fix this, whether it could be fixed, or whether I just chuck it in the bin and forget about it and look into buying a new one. I do not have a dealer so if anyone can recommend a dealer to me (I am in London) who I can post the unit to I would also be grateful. I have a pretty good idea what these are worth 2nd hand so trying to balance the cost of repair vs replace in advance.
