hi,
i've been lurking ... and preparing to build a system
got a pvr-250.
had some other parts laying around.
so ... i'm trying to get some things going.
i have hit a roadblock in an unexpected place.
i have an old TiVO (Sony) that starting having video problems.
it's been sitting on a shelf for a while.
i thought i would re-purpose the drive that is in it for Myth.
it is a quantum fireball lct 15.
the problem is, my PC won't see that drive as being any larger than ~9GB.
i have done a fair bit of poking around on the net about this.
a) other people have apparently tried as i have to do this, and met with a
similar issue.
b) i was unable to actually find a response to any of the queries i found that
seemed promising, other than the standard BIOS/LBA/translation issues.
i don't think that is the issue here as i have another big drive in the
machine.
perchance, has anyone on the list seen any info on this ?
i have seen some fleeting commentary on the net as it relates to TiVO HD's as
being "locked" ... ?
tia,
Tony
