The Upgrade

Before you proceed, please ensure you are read and understood the readme disclaimer.  We do not take responsibility for any damage caused to yourself, TiVo or Hard Drive as a result of opening your TiVo. Remember high voltages are present inside your TiVo and you can be hurt if you open the case.  You must also understand that it may VOID your TiVo WARRANTY. Also note that the capacity upgrade is fully compatible with the current UK 2.5.5 SW and older versions, and although unlikely that any future upgrades of the TiVo software will conflict with the capacity due to the operation of the drive partitions but this can not be ruled out.

We now have the 2.5.5a version of UK Thomson Software available for people with the Teletext Encoder Chip Problems. Please request this when ordering.

You will require..

  1. A Thomson UK TiVo, model number PVR10UK
  2. This upgrade guide, preferably printed out for easy viewing
  3. Our new 120GB hard drive preinstalled with UK TiVo 2.5.5 software
  4. Torx T10 and T15 bits or screwdrivers (Buy for £2 when ordering)

Proceed to choosing a Drive, the capacities will vary depending on many factors, approximate figures are on the purchase page.

It is also useful to have the following information from your current TiVo menu's to aid the guided setup.
