Upgrade your Sky+ box - and record more programmes

If you want to know how to put a bigger hard disk into your Sky+ box, so that you can record more TV programmes, our sister site Personal Computer World has just posted a workshop showing you how.

InsidetheboxIt upgrades a Pace 40GB PVR, replacing the disk with a 160GB drive that lets you record somewhere between 80 and 100 hours of TV.

The workshop is pretty easy to follow, but remember it invalidates your warranty and we can't be held responsible for any problems you encounter. But hopefully, by following the workshop, it will be a smooth (and quick) upgrade.

My problem is recording to my DVD player from the Amstrad Sky+ Box. Others must want to do this and some helpful guidance from one who has succeeded would be appreciated.

You can upgrade the hard drive a Sky+ box to 250GB. XtendedPlay do self fit upgrade kits that include instructions even my mother could follow - see www.xtendedplay.co.uk
