Hi, I got a little problem and I was wondering if you guys could help me with me it. I've had a 625 DVR for a little over a year. First 11 months I've had it, no problem. Works almost perfectly.

Then 2 weeks ago it just starts running this System Integrity Check, just by random. It looks like it can happen anytime of the day. It takes like 10 to 15 minutes. And since then it's been coming up like every 4 or 5 days. It's kind of annoyed me a little because it's already cut off, interrupted 2 programs I've recorded.

My question is how do I stop this "System Integrity Check" from happening? What do I do to prevent it from happening again?

The default setting is for the System Integrity Check to occur each day in the wee hour of 3AM. However, that can be changed to any other time. In addition, it can be shut off, but I don't recommend that. Go to Main Menu; Preferences; Updates and follow the instructions.

If this is happening at random times, as you've indicated, then your concern should be in contacting Dish Network Technical as something is wrong with the system and the HDD may fail.

What you are refering to is the Updates, or software downloads. It has nothing to do with the system integrity check. A system integrity check is an indication of an internal malfunction of the receiver. Having it pop up once in a great while is probably of not much concern as it may just have been a glitch in the hardware triggering it, but if it continues to happen on a regular basis then your receiver has developed a problem, and it will most certainly get worse.
