    Hi there,

    Suddenly the Z9X does not boot anymore. When I want to start up the Z9X, the device display stays blank, the USB-HDD's start up and the tv shows a black screen (no Zidoo logo).
    I switch off the device, I press a paperclip on the reset button until I hear the button clicking, switch on the device and hold the reset button for at least 30 seconds. Result; the Zidoo logo shows on the tv and on the device display I see 'Hello'.
    Nothing else happens.

    Can someone tell me how to factory reset the device?
    ThnX in advance!

    @ Nice Monkey,

    ThnX for your mcbluna.net link.
    It wasn’t a succes to install the beta firmware. I’ve downloaded the latest version (the hash was oké) and copied the zip onto a fat32 formatted thumb drive. The system did not respond to the thumb drive when started. When I started the system with the reset button pressed, I saw the Zidoo logo on tv and the led indicator of the thumb drive was blinking in a repetitive manner. Nothing more.

    Then I unplugged the thumb drive and pulled out the power adapter connector and waited for a couple of minutes. Then I pressed the reset button for a while and switched the on/off switch a couple of times.
    Then I placed back the power connector and I saw the red standby led lit up in the Z9X display. (I didn’t see this led the passed days.) The Z9X responded to the rc and booted fine.
