So I have a Dish network. I have a Vip622 HD DVR. And I wake up this morning and I hear this humming noise. Kinda sounds like when it updates its self. But it goes on for like 15 mins and usually only takes about 3 and It always does it at 3am and this was 7:30am. Also it wasn't displaying anything on the TV and it usually displays a screen saver on the TV.

So I reboot it and it starts working. Then about 10 mins later the image just drops and it starts making that noise again. The only light on the front that is on is TV1 green light. And that light blinks once in awhile. So I reboot again and nothing. I have tried rebooting it about 10 times. Letting it sit for a few mins to maybe cool down or something. Nothing.

Any ideas? Is my receiver fried? Is there anyway to actually trouble shoot it?

Also the hard drive was pretty full but it had been pretty full for about a year with no issues.
