Larry Dillon said: Unplug the unit for a good 15 to 30 minutes. reboot and see if the problems with the remote are gone, then try the drive again. If not, there maybe a system controller or main power supply issue I'm afraid. If that's the case, you should return the unit to the manufacturer or someone who is authorized for service. Good Luck

Thanks for the reply. I have found the problem with the remote. It had changed the remote code to that of my other Tivo. I am testing it now to see if the other problem has gone. I don't think so, because if programs were deleted while deleting on the other Tivo, wouldn't it be gone from Now Playing too?
