Rebooting TivoHD, what are my options after replacing HDD and power supply?

So I gave my father my old TivoHD with lifetime sub on it 2 years ago.

2 months ago it started to experience frequent reboots during the day.

Troubleshooting done so far:
  • Remove the cablecard and it hardly ever reboots. Keep cablecard in, reboots a few times a day. Replaced cablecard from cable co, still reboots.
  • Replaced capacitors on power supply. Still reboots.
  • Bought a known working TivoHD for parts and used its powersupply, still reboots. This power supply works just fine in the donating unit (but that motherboard obviously doesn't have a lifetime sub on it)
  • Put back in stock hard drive (it had a 1GB upgraded drive put in 3 years ago), still reboots.
  • Put known working hard drive in from purchased "parts" unit, still reboots.
  • Did a clear and erase (whatever the full reset is to rerun guided setup) twice, still reboots

If its not the hard drive and its not the power supply, is there anything else to check or replace on the motherboard that can save the lifetime sub?
