HD 300 stops no lights

OK so I think I may be in trouble here with no need hardware for sale at the moment.

I have 3 HD300's and one just started to stall. So when watching recorded tv or any media the screen freezes. I look at the hd300 box and there are no lights at all on (no red or blue). I have to unplug the power cord and power it back up. So far after plugging it back in it takes about 30-45min before it freezes again. My other hd300's do not have this problem. Does this sound like the hd300 is going bad or just the power supply?

easy way to tell...
swap power supplies with one of the happy hd300's and see if the unhappy one becomes happy (and the happy one becomes unhappy)

of course since the Evil Google Empire closed down the store, you may want to check the voltage on the supply just to make sure it is in spec first...

so I did nothing but update to the latest Sage RC1 software and have not had a problem. Luckily I am still within the 1yr warranty and it looks like it will be honored so if something does happen I should be covered.

If it happens again I will try a different power supply b/c all 3 of my HD 300's are sitting right next to each other and it would be an easy test.
