Hello,
I was wondering how to format my tivo drive so I can redo the sleeper iso method. Or will it format it in the process of running the sleeper cd monte method and write over the stuff already on the drive?

If you are using Sleeper's ISO and replacing the drive there is no need to prepare the drive before hand. The first step is Sleeper's is the backup the current drive. It will then restore onto the new drive deleting anything that was there.

Hello,
Does anyone know if there is any way to change the recording resolution no the Tivo from 480X480 to 720X480 ?

echobunny,

Many of the questions you have been asking have been answered many times over. Rather than waiting for an answer, it would probably be faster for you to search for a solution.

DirecTivo recording resolution is fixed at 480X480 and cannot be changed.

Yes, on SA TiVos you can change the recording resolutions at least on the Series 1. On the Series 2 SAs you can make changes by using the TWP resources module for S2s (I heard that it is different than the one for S1s).
