Default DVR probs

I have a new DVR from Direct TV,,2 months old..In that time I lost
signal for 3 days once and now this morning it would'nt turn on with
remote or at the unit but it felt warm on top..Finally I pulled the
power cord from the back and replaced it 30sec later..It went through
10-15 min downloading and seems to be working now..Looks like I'll have
to redo My favorites lists..
Is this a prob with My unit or with Direct TVs signals from the
company? Anybody had similar probs? If They are trying to pawn-off a
defective unit on Me I'm gonna rip Them a new one!! I was patient for
the 3 days and just lived without it but I think I used-up My patience
limit for Them then..Just want to check with Others before I go off on
DTV..*grin*..There might be a reasonable explanation...TY..

I've never seen a consumer product yet where it's failure to power on
had anything to do with the signal. If it's only 2 months old, it
surely is under warranty, so why don't you call up customer service.
Usually they just quickly exchange these.
