After Sony Boot Logo No Screen
I have tried the box on two TV's and a monitor and the box will show the Sony boot screen and then as it would normally go onto to the next stage in the android loading it just gos blank and all displays state cable disconnected.
This sucks. Any one got any ideas? Can you do a factory reset withought a gui like a hard factory reset?
Please help or I am sending this unit back and sticking with my revue.

Tried that it just resets the box and again Sony boot loader screen and again nothing. I see the Sony bootloader screen so it cannot be the cable.

As stated I can see just the Sony boot screen at the beginning then blank and the TV will say check signal. I have no idea what firmware I have as I do not get any further (at least visually) than the Sony screen. Device on light is still on however because there are moomoving parts its impossible to ascertain if the unit is still active but not displaying visuals or it is just dead.
I at first thought it might be that the unit is defaulting to a resolution outside of the range of my TV but I have tried on 1080p + Monitor and still the same result. I fear the unit is dead.
This thing is straight out the box and has not worked from day one.

This may be irelevent but here goes;
I have a Logitech Revue Google TV box and have had and still occasionally have the same issue; in that the box boots I see the splash screen , then it goes to no signal input?
To this day I have not figured it out, I too thought it may be something to do with it being a US box with NTSC support and we in the UK are on Pal?
Anyhow the only way I have randomly solved the problem is by pressing and holding the reset button numerous time and leaving the box running for a while (few hours) , then if I turn it of and back on after the wait it starts correctly ? (The reset button on the Revue does a factory reset if hed in for 30 seconds)
I appreciate this is not the same box, but it seems suspicious when they are both running the same OS?

looks like a hardware failure - something inside the box not correct
- i would contact your seller and have it replaced. This happened 'straight out the box' and there is a special clause for this type of incident and they will be quick to swap it.
