Skybox f5

Newbie
Skybox f5 has started to play up. Will boot up normally but after a few minutes, on any channel including pay channels, will either go into reboot mode or completely freeze. Can't move channels on remote or even turn off using remote when it freezes.
If I disconnect and then reconnect power box will reboot and then, after a period of time, either freeze or go into boot mode.
I've reflashed using the latest f5 update ( march 2013) by USB to no avail.
Is the box gubbed? Should I try reflashing the box by null modem method?
Any suggestions welcomed.
 
Try changing the power supply for a new one,
Less than a fiver from fleabay but must be correct type.
They have a tendency to give incorrect voltage supply after a period of time.
