still can't see the screen, the first screen is ok(apple Logo), but the next one the screen is messed up

 

[kesnut]

even screen shoots will help

Hold down the menu button and the down arrow (on the ring) for about 10 seconds. It will restart in maintenance mode. Select restart and wait for it to reboot.

Sometimes unpairing the remote will kick back in the video with Boxee. Hold down the left arrow and menu button (like above) and you will see a remote icon on the upper left of the screen.
