HD100 Extender will not boot

After playing around all day with SageMC, 1 HD100 works fine and the other will not boot into sage only the maintenance screen. In playng around with SageMC, none of my HD100's were used only the PC client untill I straighed out some issues there. I turned on one extender and voila worked fine, the other only gets to the maintenance screen, see's the server Green leds flicker and then blue screen.
I set the video out to only 480i and have tried all other support v-out settings. running the latest firmware xx812. How do you log this thing?
Any suggestions?

TIA
Skybolt

Try rebooting your server (with all extenders/clients off) before you try anything too complicated. That has fixed any problems that I have ever had.

Thanks, but tried that one as well. The config on this one needs to be reset somehow.

Have you deleted the properties file for this extender?

its in the sage\clients folder

and will have the name

0123456789ab.properties and
0123456789ab.properties.autobackup

where the number is the MAC address of the extender

Failing that, the post below says how to reset the extender back to its default settings - you should be able to do that bit and then ignore the bit that says how to put it into PAL mode.
