I have a clone dm800 which I bought second hand. I had a few problems initially, and then it seemed to settle down. Anyway, it came with the BL69 sim, and I've since replaced it with a BL72 sim. I've been running a modified Nabilo BH 11G2, which was working quiet successfully. It would occassionally reboot once every two or three days of it's own accord, but sometimes it would stick at the "Dream Multimedia" splash screen, and not reboot at all. I would then unplug it, and when it was plugged back in, it would reboot normally. This has been going on for weeks and weeks. I recently installed NewcS/Magcamd in order to update my Al Jazeera card (CCcam doesn't handle Viaccess 3 emms very well apparently). However, it started to reboot, and now it won't stop! It will go so far (the progress bar gets to just below the letter b of "booting" on the OLED display), and then it restarts the booting procedure. It will do this several times, and then eventually stick on the "Dream Multimedia" splash screen. I have reflashed with several different images via the web browser, I have tried different bootloaders, but it does the same reboot routine every time. I also replaced the power supply, as I have a spare, and it made no difference. However, I have now discovered that I can get the box to boot by removing the tuner. After that, the box boots normally every time. I also have a spare working tuner, and it still reboots if I fit that tuner too, so I know it's not the tuner that faulty. I have also removed the motherboard and examined it with a magnifying glass. There are definitely no dry joints or broken tracks. However, no matter what I do, it will only boot without a tuner fitted.
Is there some sort of tool where I can see what running process is causing the reboot?
GAH
p.s. in case anyone is interested, I have since bought a GENUINE dm800!
