After running into a few technical problems with his TiVo, YouTube users Kevin decided to take matters into his own hands rather than order a replacement unit. And he gets a tiny TiVo sticker from the front of the unit as a souvenir.
My favorite two lines from the video:
- "I don't know what any of that does."
- "I feel a lot better. And now it probably works about as well as it did yesterday."

What a moron. From the looks of the symptoms it was just a hard drive going bad. Replace the HD and it would have probably worked fine.
I just replaced a 5+ year old HD in one of my ReplayTV's with similar symptoms. Now the 7+ year old machine is as good as new.
WHAT A MORON!!! I can't wait to see the video when his car runs out of windshield washer fluid!

Humm looks like what happened to my series one a few years ago. Tivo did some software thing called a jumpstart or something (took like 8 hours of my phone line downloading info) but it fixed it and it still works to this day (7 years and counting) Good thing i bought the lifetime service.
