Is the problem solved?
Yes!
I have been trying to sort this out for about a week and half trying different ways as suggested by different people, in the end I got fed up & just left unit with the power cable in and the power button pressed down as already suggested but had not worked & I got up this morning & it was in standby with the LED light inside red, well I could not believe it so I switched on at the remote & bingo it was working so I put in the correct pin I hasten to add & there it was in all it's glory working again.
I am really pleased as I did not want to fork out for a repair just after christmas.
So a BIG thankyou to all of you who helped me try to sort this out.
Regards Simon
PS I had left it powered up for about three days & had checked before & it was only this morning that it was in standby odd really

Very glad to hear you sorted it out in the end Simon

Thanks for the reply,

I have already contacted B&O eastbourne as I had already said earlier in the post, I also managed to speak to Alan today at B&O Tunbridge Wells who actually done a software upgrade about 6months ago, they suggested another way of trying but still no luck, there must be a correct sequence to go through but I am unable yet to find it.

Ps I did notice on another page on the site that if I join up as a silver or gold member then I get some sort of technical help, is this the case?

Not exactly technical help - that is free via the beoworld members (many of our technical advisors will probably be offline now until the festive season is over).

Silver membership entitles you to sell & buy on the site and grants access to the vast database of user & service manuals on site for the 12 month duration of membership. Gold membership gives you the same access plus entry into the monthly prize draw on the same 12 month basis.

To be honest, I don't think the user & service manuals are likely to help with your problem as the advice already given is about as good as you will get without the help of a dealer.

I hope not, I will be very disappointed if it is broken as I have done nothing to it except put in the wrong Pin, I cannot see that it has broken because this situation must be replicated elsewhere with wrong pin numbers being put in all over the world, but if this is the case then I will be contacting B&O about it to see what there position is on this matter. .

Well I have just spoke to John @ eastbourne B&O and he suggested that I disconnect the power for 10-15mins reconnect without switching on and leaving the unit for three hours & the n switch on but no more than four hours and he also very kindly gave me the pin number that I had forgotten, so hopefully the sequence that he has suggested will work.

No there's nothing else connected at all, quite puzzling really.
