Restart reciver is the same as unplugging the receiver. Restart defaults resets the reciever with default settings such as favorites and parental controls. Restart everything erases everything including the authorization and resets the receiver so a tech can re run the satellite setup and later call for a resend of authorization for that receiver.

How do you reformat the hard drive for hr-20/700

If you go into the DVR's Menu/Setup there will be menu selections to "Restart Receiver" and "Reset Receiver"
In the reset menu you should find three options "restart receiver" which is roughly equivalent (and possibly safer) than the reset button or a power cycle. "Reset defaults" will clear all of your preferences and personal setting without affecting recordings. "Reset Everything" pretty much returns the receiver to ground zero and deletes everything.

Directv wont turn on

Make sure your internet connection is good, I had a wire go bad and drove us crazy, as a last result I changed it and the DVR came back to life. It needs internet to startup

Remote will not work

you would need to contact directv at 800-531-5000 and if programming it did not work, and setting it to default did not work, you may need a new remote. remote will cost about $15 unless you have the protection plan then it should be free depending on some circumstances.

DIRECTV RECEIVER

Restart and on the first screen press 02468 it will force firmware update this should also remove "everything". If this doesn't work call Directv I know they can do it with the Rec. and Card #'s
