    Could you explain what you mean by "keeps cutting out"? What does it say on screen?

    Perhaps contacts on teh viewing card are a bit dirty?

    Also, do you have little people who often tug at the card?

    Hmm, I'd think either the contacts are dirty, or the little switch at back of card slot is not working (it tells box when a card is inserted)

    I was having similar problems until I updated my sky box software. You could try that if it has not been done.

    Turn off power (plug-out)
    hold down "backup" button on the box not remote.
    plug in and turn on
    wait for message saying software update
    release button

    Failling that it could be power supply in box (if old box). Thats another matter but easily fixed :D
