No picture, only sound. And problems restarting.

[roddiss]

Two times now it has happened that suddenly the picture is gone on my Ultimo, I only have sound. I have to restart to get picture back. I also have problems restarting quite often, I have to turn off and on several times on the power button for it to start. Any ideas to what could be wrong?

I don't know what could be wrong, but I think you should reinstall a clean image.

I will try...

You made personal backup or full backup ?
Maybe your personal backup is old and was made in image based on OE1.6 ?
Best way is made personal backup and after install clean image restore backup.

I made backup just before i turned it off before reflash, made backup in software manger

Avoid to restore any backup after installing the new image.

Oh, what is the point of backing up then? It was backup made in 2.0.2 Rev D

You should do backup on well running system, not when it's corrupted. That means, that you should do backup after configuration of your system (plugin's installed, channels organized and up to date and so on) for future use. When you'll do backup on system, which has some problems, it serves to nothing.

I understand.... But the problem I got with the power and restart is still there, and I hope I don`t get the other problem with picture back. Crossing fingers.... Afraid it could be hardware problem.
