Microsoft Enhanced cableboxes go BSOD

Click for full size
I guess this is the "Enhanced" part.
When this happend it takes a hard reset (power cycle and a remote reset from Comcast to restore operation. Oh and this is NOT a DVR box just a simple cable box. How can they mess it up so badly?

Hey, my Scientific Atlanta box has all kinds of problems that require me to kill the power for 1 minute, turn the power back on and wait for like 5 minutes before turning the box back on, so it's not limited to MS.

that sounds like a bad firmware it loaded, or bad programming on SA part.

I believe it's only in the northwest Washington market.

We still have the tan (turd) guide on our old black Moto-boxes.
