Congratulations and welcome to the club! Curious, did you try a soft reboot (menu restart)? I'm sure it's fine, but just as a reference point. Also by chance did you note the manufacture date? TIA...and enjoy!

In settings, network connect to tivo. I just downloaded the "NEW: Search the Netflix Instant Watch catalog using TiVo Search on your TiVo HD DVR." I installed a 1TB WD10EVDS last weekend. I just soft-booted in re-start tivo, 3 thumbs down...

My Tivo HD with the WD10EVDS booted up fine.

Excellent. Good to know that so far the WD changes haven't spread to the EVDS line. Thanks for that.

It's day 7 and my S3 and Tuning Adapter (TA) are working great together!

After dumping the MyDVR expander drive, and eventually the internal drive of the S3, all my TA problems seem to be solved..., no more weekly reboots of the TA, daily lockups, picture breakup problems... And, when I reboot the system, the TA automatically resets. Never did that before. I always had to unplug the TA to reset it after a reboot of the system.

Life is good!

Sah-weet! (Hope you didn't jinx it though! ) I have no experience with TA's. It's a bit OT, but was that a recent addition in your area? If you lived with and without it are there any major downsides (besides the apparent issues with the Expander)? TIA.

I will have to check this out. Do you mean that you can pick something to watch that is NOT in your Q?

MPSAN, yes you can just go to, Find Programs, Tivo Search and it will find netflix movies that are not in your Q. It's pretty cool.

My son has the new play station 3 with netflix & it's even better. I'm sure Tivo will have this at some point... In his, you can actually see all the down-loadable netflix movies with descriptions, art work, etc. & watch. I'm not sure what happens with his if you only watch half the movie...

Sorry to get off subject...

Glad to hear that the PS3 is a good investment. We're on the verge of buying one...more for the BlueRay player and web access than anything, but the improved Netflix experience will be a bonus! Okay...more apologies...back OT.

OK, I will see if I can search as well. Our son has Vista and he sees all the stuff on Netflix with all the info as well.

***UPDATE*** It does work, but you do need to have a title in mind to search for.

OK, back On Topic!
