Now don't
hold me to this but I believe on TWC's end they
have your name associated with the numbers off
the back of the two boxes you own and consequently
your two HD boxes work in your house/address only.
I am not holding you to this but I don't think this is the case. I had customers move and I reinstalled their boxes at the new address with no problems. Even when the cable was "left on" from the previous owners.

So before I go out and by a digital cable box,
I borrowed one from a friend. The digital cable
box is identical, is use for TWC in his home and
is working 100 % (tested). Why doesn't this new
box work in my house?
Were you getting a message on the screen? maybe the box detected a different signal and went into some security mode? There are ways to get the box to call back to the cable co and restore an IP address. That could of been what happened. you failed to mention what brand of box you were using.
