The absolute "best" way to get out of the continuous reboot loop is to use Tonto, available here: [Link: giantlaser.com]. It's a substitute for PE/TSS, and handles all versions of the remote except the 3000. It is also much more communications friendly than the original software.

It has an "undead" function that reloads the ccf and cures the continuous reboot loop on the first shot 99% of the time.
