While trying to download a change in the programming, the download failed, and then the remote locked up.

Display has a black screen with the Universal Remote logo in the middle, and the "Unable to find system files. Please download using PC software" message.


Any ideas on how to get it back to functioning? Reset of some sort?

Try pressing and holding Devices & ent for least 5 seconds. Hit page and go to erase and reset.

Try That

1.Open up battery compartment & remove 1 battery from cup.
2.Press & hold the "On" & "Mute" buttons simultaneously. While pressing both buttons, reinsert the 4th battery into the cup. You should get a blue screen with the word "Loader" on the page heading.
3.Download your programming to the remote. If you get an eror message pertaining to the USB connection, ignore it, as your file should have down-loaded successfully. If not, run the boot loader procedure again.

MX880 only has 1 battery.

I think you meant Watch and Ent, as that is what I found on URC site. It didn't work for me, (;

No, that is not for bootloader.  Thats is just for regular remote menu I believe.  Its been years since I worked on an 880
